While one of them could be a risky investment, both have credible paths to making shareholders a richer.</p><h2>1. Novo Nordisk</h2><p><strong>Novo Nordisk</strong> is a Danish pharma company that's been in the news lately, thanks to its drug semaglutide. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the drug in the U.S. for treating obesity, which sells under the trade name Wegovy. Additionally, semaglutide is also approved to treat type 2 diabetes and sold under the trade names Ozempic, an injectable, and Rybelsus, a pill.</p><p>Currently, the company's investigating semaglutide for other indications as well, like Alzheimer's disease, in late-stage clinical trials. And if the fact that its obesity care segment grew by 84% in 2022 means anything at all, it's that this company has a lot of growth on the way.</p><p>Over the last 10 years, Novo Nordisk grew its annual diluted earnings per share (EPS) at an average of 10.1% per year, reaching $3.59. Now, thanks largely to its anticipated semaglutide earnings, Wall Street analysts predict that, on average, its long-term EPS growth rate will be 20.7% annually. At that pace, its 2022 net income of $7.8 billion will expand to around $26.7 billion by 2030. And if its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio remains at 44.2, its market cap could surpass $1.1 trillion -- more than triple its current value of $354 billion.</p><p>So, in principle, Novo Nordisk stock could indeed triple over the next 6.5 years. But that doesn't mean you should bet the bank on it happening. Even with a portfolio of great products, growing earnings by roughly 20% per year for more than half a decade is quite difficult for a large and established business.</p><p>Plus, there's always the chance that market phenomena will cause its P/E ratio to compress, meaning it would take a significantly faster pace of net income growth to still triple in value relative to today. Nonetheless, this stock isn't very risky thanks to its in-demand medicines and the likely output of its development pipeline. So don't be too afraid to buy a few shares, as a purchase will probably pay off over the coming years.</p><h2>2. SNDL</h2><p><strong>SNDL</strong> is a Canadian cannabis and liquor business that doesn't exactly have a hit drug like semaglutide to sell. Instead, SNDL's path to tripling by 2030 involves it surviving a decidedly toxic cocktail of market and economic factors that currently appear to be harming its competitors to the point that they will be relatively easy to buy out.</p><p>In a nutshell, it's a bad time to be a cannabis company. After experiencing a brutal collapse from the frothy frenzy of 2021, the market presently has shunned cannabis stocks. Most public businesses in the industry are unprofitable, and the piecemeal nature of marijuana legalization in the U.S. remains a major stumbling block.</p><p>More importantly, the North American marijuana markets are being punished by companies lowering cannabis prices because of excess weed floating around compared to the level of demand. There are too many goods chasing too few consumers.</p><p>But for a business like SNDL, these conditions make for the perfect setup. It currently has CA$207 million in unrestricted cash on hand and no debt. Due to significant impairments from its last set of acquisitions, it isn't profitable; however, it made CA$28.6 million in cash from operations in the fourth quarter, and its cash balance only dropped by CA$6.7 million in 2022.</p><p>At the same time, as a result of some of its prior investments and lending to other U.S. marijuana companies, it could gain a majority owner of one or two of the multi-state operators (MSOs) there. That could power its top line to surpass CA$1 billion before the end of 2023, up from 2022's sum of CA$712.2 million.</p><p>To triple, SNDL's market cap would need to reach approximately 1.2 billion U.S. dollars, up from its market cap near $400 million today. But right now, its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio is only 0.6, far lower than most of its competitors, not to mention the market's average P/S of 2.4. Let's assume it succeeds with its plans to gain control of a U.S. MSO or two so that by the end of 2023, it will reach CA$1 billion in sales, which is actually a bit lower than analysts' estimates.</p><p>If it can then simply grow its annual revenue by a measly 8.5% annually over the six years following 2023, it'll easily triple to reach a market cap of $1.2 billion, provided its P/S expands a bit to reach a still-super-low value of 1.0. But if its valuation corrects to a level merely in the ballpark of the market's average, it could triple while growing even slower -- and with acquisition opportunities abounding, growing slower is unlikely. Still, its shares could also lose a lot of value between now and 2030, thanks to the difficult market conditions.

While one of them could be a risky investment, both have credible paths to making shareholders a richer.1. Novo NordiskNovo Nordisk is a Danish pharma company that's been in the news lately, thanks to its drug semaglutide. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the drug in the U.S. for treating obesity, which sells under the trade name Wegovy. Additionally, semaglutide is also approved to treat type 2 diabetes and sold under the trade names Ozempic, an injectable, and Rybelsus, a pill.Currently, the company's investigating semaglutide for other indications as well, like Alzheimer's disease, in late-stage clinical trials. And if the fact that its obesity care segment grew by 84% in 2022 means anything at all, it's that this company has a lot of growth on the way.Over the last 10 years, Novo Nordisk grew its annual diluted earnings per share (EPS) at an average of 10.1% per year, reaching $3.59. Now, thanks largely to its anticipated semaglutide earnings, Wall Street analysts predict that, on average, its long-term EPS growth rate will be 20.7% annually. At that pace, its 2022 net income of $7.8 billion will expand to around $26.7 billion by 2030. And if its price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio remains at 44.2, its market cap could surpass $1.1 trillion -- more than triple its current value of $354 billion.So, in principle, Novo Nordisk stock could indeed triple over the next 6.5 years. But that doesn't mean you should bet the bank on it happening. Even with a portfolio of great products, growing earnings by roughly 20% per year for more than half a decade is quite difficult for a large and established business.Plus, there's always the chance that market phenomena will cause its P/E ratio to compress, meaning it would take a significantly faster pace of net income growth to still triple in value relative to today. Nonetheless, this stock isn't very risky thanks to its in-demand medicines and the likely output of its development pipeline. So don't be too afraid to buy a few shares, as a purchase will probably pay off over the coming years.2. SNDLSNDL is a Canadian cannabis and liquor business that doesn't exactly have a hit drug like semaglutide to sell. Instead, SNDL's path to tripling by 2030 involves it surviving a decidedly toxic cocktail of market and economic factors that currently appear to be harming its competitors to the point that they will be relatively easy to buy out.In a nutshell, it's a bad time to be a cannabis company. After experiencing a brutal collapse from the frothy frenzy of 2021, the market presently has shunned cannabis stocks. Most public businesses in the industry are unprofitable, and the piecemeal nature of marijuana legalization in the U.S. remains a major stumbling block.More importantly, the North American marijuana markets are being punished by companies lowering cannabis prices because of excess weed floating around compared to the level of demand. There are too many goods chasing too few consumers.But for a business like SNDL, these conditions make for the perfect setup. It currently has CA$207 million in unrestricted cash on hand and no debt. Due to significant impairments from its last set of acquisitions, it isn't profitable; however, it made CA$28.6 million in cash from operations in the fourth quarter, and its cash balance only dropped by CA$6.7 million in 2022.At the same time, as a result of some of its prior investments and lending to other U.S. marijuana companies, it could gain a majority owner of one or two of the multi-state operators (MSOs) there. That could power its top line to surpass CA$1 billion before the end of 2023, up from 2022's sum of CA$712.2 million.To triple, SNDL's market cap would need to reach approximately 1.2 billion U.S. dollars, up from its market cap near $400 million today. But right now, its price-to-sales (P/S) ratio is only 0.6, far lower than most of its competitors, not to mention the market's average P/S of 2.4. Let's assume it succeeds with its plans to gain control of a U.S. MSO or two so that by the end of 2023, it will reach CA$1 billion in sales, which is actually a bit lower than analysts' estimates.If it can then simply grow its annual revenue by a measly 8.5% annually over the six years following 2023, it'll easily triple to reach a market cap of $1.2 billion, provided its P/S expands a bit to reach a still-super-low value of 1.0. But if its valuation corrects to a level merely in the ballpark of the market's average, it could triple while growing even slower -- and with acquisition opportunities abounding, growing slower is unlikely. Still, its shares could also lose a lot of value between now and 2030, thanks to the difficult market conditions. So don't buy it unless you're brave.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":391,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9947239799,"gmtCreate":1683168119811,"gmtModify":1683168123605,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"H","listText":"H","text":"H","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9947239799","repostId":"2332909655","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2332909655","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1683158958,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2332909655?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-05-04 08:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"TripAdvisor Stock Tumbles As Losses Accelerate Alongside Sales","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2332909655","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"TripAdvisor (NASDAQ:TRIP) shares slid as much as 9% in Wednesday’s after hours trading after issuing","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>TripAdvisor (NASDAQ:TRIP) shares slid as much as 9% in Wednesday’s after hours trading after issuing a disappointing Q1 earnings update.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f3225b78c34ad400209ead98b438fe04\" tg-width=\"826\" tg-height=\"618\"/></p><p>For the first quarter, the Massachusetts-based travel platform posted $0.05 in earnings per share, one cent short of expectations.

Th","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The next hot-button topic for bulls and bears on Tesla stock is deliveries for the first quarter. The numbers are due this weekend.</p><p>It will be the first time Tesla will report delivery numbers since it slashed vehicle prices around the globe early this year. CEO Elon Musk said on the company’s fourth-quarter earnings conference call that “demand far exceeds production” and “we currently are seeing orders at almost twice the rate of production.”</p><p>The improvement in demand is a big reason that Tesla stock was up about 55% year to date, coming into Monday trading.</p><p>Tesla typically reports its quarterly delivery figures on the second day of the month. That will be Sunday if the pattern holds.</p><p>Wall Street is expecting the data to show about 420,000 units were delivered in the first quarter of 2023, up from about 405,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022.</p><p>That implies growth of about 4% from the prior quarter and about 35% compared with the roughly 310,000 vehicles delivered in the first quarter of 2022.</p><p>Barclays analyst Dan Levy believes Tesla will beat the consensus call of 420,000 vehicles and delivery roughly 425,000 cars. That would be enough to give the stock a boost, according to Levy.</p><p>He rates the shares at Buy and has a target of $275 for the price. Citi analyst Itay Michaeli has a Hold rating on shares, but raised his price target to $196 from $146 on Monday.</p><p>Recent data points, such as Chinese auto registration data, have been encouraging, wrote Michaeli. Registrations for Tesla vehicles in China, one proxy for demand in that country, have grown for four consecutive weeks.</p><p>Tesla also exports cars to Europe from its Chinese plant, so predicting total sales from Tesla’s Chinese plant in Shanghai is any given quarter is difficult.</p><p>Tesla’s Shanghai plant produced about 140,000 units in January and February combined. About 61,000 were delivered domestically with the rest exported. Tesla also makes vehicles in Fremont, Calif.; Austin, Texas; and Germany.</p><p>Not surprisingly, Tesla stock typically reacts better when deliveries exceed forecasts than when they fall short. Shares dropped about 12% on the first trading day of 2023 after fourth-quarter deliveries missed expectations. Wall Street was looking for about 420,000 units, roughly 15,000 more than the actual total.</p><p>Shares quickly recovered, however, and were at about $144 before Tesla reported its fourth-quarter numbers on Jan. 25.

The numbers are due this weekend.It will be the first time Tesla will report delivery numbers since it slashed vehicle prices around the globe early this year. CEO Elon Musk said on the company’s fourth-quarter earnings conference call that “demand far exceeds production” and “we currently are seeing orders at almost twice the rate of production.”The improvement in demand is a big reason that Tesla stock was up about 55% year to date, coming into Monday trading.Tesla typically reports its quarterly delivery figures on the second day of the month. That will be Sunday if the pattern holds.Wall Street is expecting the data to show about 420,000 units were delivered in the first quarter of 2023, up from about 405,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022.That implies growth of about 4% from the prior quarter and about 35% compared with the roughly 310,000 vehicles delivered in the first quarter of 2022.Barclays analyst Dan Levy believes Tesla will beat the consensus call of 420,000 vehicles and delivery roughly 425,000 cars. That would be enough to give the stock a boost, according to Levy.He rates the shares at Buy and has a target of $275 for the price. Citi analyst Itay Michaeli has a Hold rating on shares, but raised his price target to $196 from $146 on Monday.Recent data points, such as Chinese auto registration data, have been encouraging, wrote Michaeli. Registrations for Tesla vehicles in China, one proxy for demand in that country, have grown for four consecutive weeks.Tesla also exports cars to Europe from its Chinese plant, so predicting total sales from Tesla’s Chinese plant in Shanghai is any given quarter is difficult.Tesla’s Shanghai plant produced about 140,000 units in January and February combined. About 61,000 were delivered domestically with the rest exported. Tesla also makes vehicles in Fremont, Calif.; Austin, Texas; and Germany.Not surprisingly, Tesla stock typically reacts better when deliveries exceed forecasts than when they fall short. Shares dropped about 12% on the first trading day of 2023 after fourth-quarter deliveries missed expectations. Wall Street was looking for about 420,000 units, roughly 15,000 more than the actual total.Shares quickly recovered, however, and were at about $144 before Tesla reported its fourth-quarter numbers on Jan. 25. Tesla stock closed out 2022 at $123.18 a share and dropped to $108.10 after the delivery disappointment.Tesla stock was up 2.1% in early trading at about $194.39. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite rose about 0.5% and 0.3%, respectively.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":420,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9941089873,"gmtCreate":1679868301793,"gmtModify":1679868305192,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤔","listText":"🤔","text":"🤔","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":11,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9941089873","repostId":"2322788021","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2322788021","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1679795472,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2322788021?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-26 09:51","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Chip Legend Gordon Moore Leaves behind a Silicon Valley Looking for Its Next Big Thing","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2322788021","media":"marketwatch","summary":"Gordon Moore, a founding father of Silicon Valley whose work in the chip industry catalyzed computin","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e2c9aeffe332c843b0eec8a11e27cc2d\" tg-width=\"1024\" tg-height=\"691\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Gordon Moore, a founding father of Silicon Valley whose work in the chip industry catalyzed computing, died Friday at 94, with his passing marking the further end of a golden era for the technology industry.</p><p>An Intel co-founder who played an integral role in several of the earliest semiconductor companies, he is perhaps best known for coming up with Moore’s Law, a prediction that the number of transistors on an integrated circuit would double every year.

It is too soon to determine the extent of these effects, and therefore too soon to determine how monetary policy should respond," Powell said.</p><p>He later compared the banking issues to additional rate hikes.</p><h2>Powell cautions that inflation fight 'has a long way to go'</h2><p>Fed Chairman Jerome Powell warned that the central bank still has some distance to cover as it tries to bring down inflation to its longer-run goal.</p><p>"The process of getting inflation back down to 2% has a long way to go and is likely to be bumpy," the central bank leader said at his post-meeting news conference.</p><p>He noted some progress and also said the Fed will be assessing data and the impact of its rate hikes in deciding how to proceed with policy.</p><p>"Inflation has moderated somewhat since the middle of last year, but the strength of these recent readings indicates that inflation pressures continue to run high," Powell said.</p><h2>Bank deposit flows have stabilized, Powell says</h2><p>The banking system is resilient and deposit flows are back on track, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said.</p><p>"Deposit flows in the banking system have stabilized over the last week," he said.</p><p>Powell said the powerful actions taken by the Fed, Treasury Department and FDIC demonstrate that depositors' savings and the banking system are safe.</p><p>The central bank is now undertaking a thorough internal review to see where it can strengthen supervision and regulation.</p><h2>Fed Chair Powell anticipates tighter credit conditions ahead, says “some additional policy firming may be appropriate”</h2><p>Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell noted that tighter credit conditions are likely ahead following turmoil in the regional banking sector.</p><p>"We believe, however, that events in the banking system over the past two weeks are likely to result in tighter credit conditions for households and businesses, which would in turn affect economic outcomes," he said.</p><p>"It is too soon to determine the extent of these effects, and therefore too soon to tell it how monetary policy should respond," Powell added.

Instead, we now anticipate that some additional policy firming may be appropriate."</p><p>The Fed will closely monitor incoming data and assess the actual and expected effects on tighter credit conditions on economic activity, the labor market and inflation in order to inform its policy decisions, Powell added.

It is important that we sustain that confidence with our actions, as well as our words," Powell said.</p><h2>Fed Chair Powell on Silicon Valley Bank failure, 'How did this happen?'</h2><p>At his press conference on Wednesday afternoon, Fed Chair Jerome Powell spoke about Silicon Valley Bank's failure.</p><h2>Powell slams Silicon Valley Bank management over lack of supervision</h2><p>Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said that management at Silicon Valley Bank "failed badly," while exposing customers to "significant liquidity risk and interest rate risk."</p><p>He added that stronger supervision and regulation is needed to prevent another string of bank collapses and deposit crisis.</p><p>"My only interest is that we identify what went wrong here," Powell said.</p><h2>The market is getting it wrong by predicting rate cuts this year, says Powell</h2><p>The market is getting it wrong if it expects rate cuts later this year, said Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.</p><p>He highlighted the fact that the central bank's summary of economic projections published Wednesday anticipates slow growth, a gradual decline in inflation and the rebalancing of both supply and demand within the labor market.</p><p>"In that most likely case, if that happens, participants don't see rate cuts this year," he said.</p><p>Powell added that what lies ahead for the economy may be "uncertain" but rate hikes are not currently in the central bank's "baseline expectation."</p><h2>If the Fed needs to raise rates higher, it will, Powell says</h2><p>Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said the central bank will conduct more rate hikes if it needs to in order to fight inflation.</p><p>"If we need to raise rates higher, we will," Powell said in the press conference. "I think for now, though ...we see the likelihood of credit tightening.

In particular, bank stocks <b>First Republic</b>, <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PACW\">PacWest Bancorp</a></b>, and <b>Western Alliance</b> went on quite a bumpy ride as investors spotted similarities between their balance sheets and those of failed bank <b>SVB Financial</b>.

Many banks invested excess deposits into lower-yielding, longer-duration bonds too early in the interest rate cycle. When rates rose, these bonds fell out of favor and their value fell deeply underwater because bond yields and bond values have an inverse relationship.

Word got around so quickly that SVB saw an astounding $42 billion of deposits pulled in a single day.</p><h2>Making comparisons to SVB Financial</h2><p>In order to see how First Republic, PacWest, and Western Alliance stack up to SVB, let's first examine how many of their deposits were uninsured and what kinds of bond losses they were facing relative to their tangible common equity (TCE) at the end of 2022. I'm only going to look at unrealized bond losses in these banks' held-to-maturity (HTM) portfolios because these are not marked-to-market and therefore not subtracted from equity each quarter.</p><table border=\"1\"><tbody><tr><th>Bank</th><th>TCE</th><th>HTM Unrealized Losses on Dec. 31, 2022</th><th>Percent of Deposits Uninsured on Dec. 31, 2022</th></tr><tr><td>SVB Financial</td><td>$11.8 billion</td><td>$15.1 billion</td><td>89%</td></tr><tr><td>First Republic</td><td>$12.8 billion</td><td>$4.8 billion</td><td>79%</td></tr><tr><td>Western Alliance</td><td>$4.4 billion</td><td>$177 million</td><td>76%</td></tr><tr><td><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PACWL\">PacWest Bancorp</a></td><td>$2.12 billion</td><td>NM</td><td>57%</td></tr></tbody></table><p>Data sources: Bank call reports and regulatory filings. TCE = Tangible common equity. HTM = Held to maturity. NM = Not material.</p><p>As you can see, SVB would have wiped out all of its equity if it had sold its HTM bond portfolio. First Republic would wipe out 37.5% of its equity, while Western Alliance and PacWest aren't really sitting on any meaningful HTM bond losses. However, all of these banks had a significant amount of uninsured deposits.</p><h2>Homing in on deposits</h2><p>First Republic is a niche bank catering to high-net-worth households in the coastal parts of the U.S. like California, New York, Boston, and Florida. Like SVB, it also does a good amount of lending to businesses like venture capital and private equity firms, as well as nonprofits such as higher education.</p><p>Interestingly, First Republic notes that it only has one-fifth of business deposit accounts compared to the average U.S. bank with between $100 billion and $250 billion in deposits. The bank also noted in a recent investor presentation that its average business account has $490,000 in deposits in it, so you can see how a deposit base like this could potentially flee quicker than somewhere like <b>Bank of America</b>, which has millions of consumer accounts with much smaller balances.</p><p>Despite tapping the Federal Reserve and <b>JPMorgan Chase</b> and building unused liquidity of $70 billion, First Republic was apparently still seeing deposit outflows and had to get an additional $30 billion deposit injection from 11 different banks.</p><p>Western Alliance mainly gathers deposits from companies as well but seems to have a somewhat more diverse set of customers, serving a wider range of businesses, mortgage companies, homeowner's associations, and business escrow services. Roughly 14% of the bank's deposits came from the tech and innovation sector.</p><p>PacWest also heavily caters to the venture capital community. At the end of 2022, about $12 billion of its nearly $34 billion in deposits came from venture banking activity, and the bank is reportedly seeking additional liquidity similar to First Republic.</p><h2>Margin and insider buys</h2><p>A good indicator of a bank's profitability is its net interest margin (NIM), which essentially looks at the interest a bank makes on interest-earning assets such as loans and securities and what it pays out on interest-bearing liabilities like deposits.</p><p>First Republic is definitely going to be challenged, as it had already been facing NIM pressure even before all of the chaos started because it holds a large mortgage portfolio, which tends to yield less than a lot of business and commercial loans. Considering the bank recently said it has taken on a lot of higher-cost borrowings to fill the hole from outflows, expect earnings to struggle, especially over the next few quarters.</p><p>On its first-quarter earnings call back in January, PacWest's management team expected NIM to be flat in 2023, but this has likely changed given everything going on.</p><p>On Western Alliance's Q1 earnings call, management actually guided for very strong deposit growth in 2023 of between 13% and 17% and NIM expansion this year. Last Friday, as SVB Financial was being put into FDIC receivership, Western Alliance reaffirmed its deposit growth projections for the year, although it will be interesting to see how those hold up. On March 13, the bank said it had increased cash balances to $25 billion and that insured deposits now exceeded 50%, which are all positive developments.</p><p>In terms of recent stock purchases by management and directors, PacWest takes the cake, with many members of its senior management team and directors purchasing shares since SVB failed. As of March 16, only one director at Western Alliance had purchased shares, and at First Republic, one member of senior management sold shares in recent days and one director acquired shares on March 9.</p><h2>Are any of these stocks worth buying?</h2><p>The big thing to understand here is that this is a rapidly evolving situation, so expect a lot of volatility over the next few weeks and there's no guarantee that more regional banks won't face deposit runs. These three banks may also see credit downgrades from the rating agencies (First Republic already has). I also think First Republic is a likely seller if it can find a buyer because it could really be an uphill battle for the bank from an earnings perspective.</p><p>Additionally, regional banks definitely face challenges moving forward, whether it's on earnings or on the regulatory front. So while I expect them to rebound, it may not be an easy road and they may not gain their former valuations, at least for a while.</p><p>All that said, Western Alliance looks the best positioned of these three right now given their cash position and the fact that more than half of the bank's deposits are now FDIC-insured. The company also has better NIM expectations and looks to have a more stable, diverse deposit base. I do wish insiders were buying more shares, however, because it would be a good signal to the market.</p><p>If you're interested in investing, the best thing to do right now is to take a small position and build it gradually as conditions stabilize. Another way to play this might be to purchase an exchange-traded fund with exposure to regional banks like the <b>SPDR S&P Regional Banking ETF</b>, so you get exposure to a basket of regional bank stocks.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>First Republic, PacWest, and Western Alliance Have Sold Off Intensely.

In particular, bank stocks First Republic, PacWest Bancorp, and Western Alliance went on quite a bumpy ride as investors spotted similarities between their balance sheets and those of failed bank SVB Financial. As a result, all three stocks have been sold off intensely.To paraphrase legendary investor Warren Buffett, with so many investors so scared right now, is it time to \"be greedy when others are fearful?\" Given the sell-off, are any of these stocks worth buying right now? Let's take a look.Uninsured deposits and bond lossesThe big thing that brought SVB Financial's Silicon Valley Bank and Silvergate Capital's Silvergate Bank down is deposits fleeing the bank extremely quickly over concerns about bond losses. Many banks invested excess deposits into lower-yielding, longer-duration bonds too early in the interest rate cycle. When rates rose, these bonds fell out of favor and their value fell deeply underwater because bond yields and bond values have an inverse relationship. Given enough time, these \"paper losses\" on the bonds would have turned back into gains if the bonds were held to maturity. SVB didn't get that needed time.What exacerbated SVB's and Silvergate's problems is that both banks had too much deposit concentration among a smaller number of big customers, all carrying deposit balances well in excess of what the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) insures. In SVB's case, once the liquidity issues it faced became known, these select large customers got spooked, pulled their deposits quickly, and then told their friends to do the same. Word got around so quickly that SVB saw an astounding $42 billion of deposits pulled in a single day.Making comparisons to SVB FinancialIn order to see how First Republic, PacWest, and Western Alliance stack up to SVB, let's first examine how many of their deposits were uninsured and what kinds of bond losses they were facing relative to their tangible common equity (TCE) at the end of 2022. I'm only going to look at unrealized bond losses in these banks' held-to-maturity (HTM) portfolios because these are not marked-to-market and therefore not subtracted from equity each quarter.BankTCEHTM Unrealized Losses on Dec. 31, 2022Percent of Deposits Uninsured on Dec. 31, 2022SVB Financial$11.8 billion$15.1 billion89%First Republic$12.8 billion$4.8 billion79%Western Alliance$4.4 billion$177 million76%PacWest Bancorp$2.12 billionNM57%Data sources: Bank call reports and regulatory filings.

That’s not supposed to be the pecking order, some holders in the bonds insist.</p><p>“This just makes no sense,” said Patrik Kauffmann, a fixed-income portfolio manager at Aquila Asset Management, who holds the notes. “Shareholders should get zero” because “it’s crystal clear that AT1s are senior to stocks.”</p><p>One UK bank CEO put it even more bluntly: The Swiss have killed this key corner of funding for lenders, he said, asking not to be named because the situation is sensitive. His comments underscore how the global financial community is on edge after the UBS takeover of Credit Suisse, which came on the heels of the collapse of three regional US banks.</p><p>Prices of AT1s in Asia slid on Monday, with debt securities of some lenders in the region dropping by record amounts. Bank of East Asia Ltd.’s 5.825% perpetual dollar note slumped 9.4 cents on the dollar to about 80 cents, which would be a record decline if maintained through the end of Monday’s trading, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.</p><p>HSBC Holdings Plc’s 8% AT1 fell about 5 cents Monday to below 90 cents, according to credit traders. That would be its biggest daily drop since it began trading early this month.</p><p>It’s not that the bonds weren’t supposed to take some of the blow from the Credit Suisse collapse. In fact, that’s in large part what they were created to do when they were first conceived by European regulators in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, as a way to impose losses on creditors when banks start to fail without resorting to taxpayer money.</p><p>Yet, by privileging equity investors over holders of the riskiest bank securities, it’s left the bond community confused and rattled about who ranks first when it comes to the hierarchy of investor claims the next time a lender is in trouble.</p><p>With litigation potentially brewing, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. traders were preparing to take bids on claims against Credit Suisse’s riskiest bonds for investors betting they can ultimately recover some value.</p><p>“Wiping out AT1 holders while paying substantial amounts to shareholders goes against all the resolution principles and rules that were agreed internationally after 2008,” according to Jérôme Legras, head of research at Axiom Alternative Investments, who said the firm owns AT1 bonds issued by Credit Suisse.</p><p>From the perspective of Swiss officials, it was able to force a write-off of the securities because it needed to boost Credit Suisse’s capital and resolve its liquidity problems. The bonds typically face a haircut whenever government support is offered to a lender facing solvency problems.</p><p>Yet market participants say the move will likely lead to a disruptive industry-wide repricing. The market for new AT1 bonds will likely go into deep freeze and the cost of risky bank funding risks jumping higher given the regulatory decision caught some creditors off-guard, say traders.</p><p>That would give bank treasurers fewer options to raise capital at a time of market stress, with the Federal Reserve and five other central banks announcing coordinated action on Sunday to boost dollar liquidity.</p><p>“The AT1 market will be shut now for new issuance for a while,” said Luke Hickmore, investment director at abrdn Plc, who holds a small number of the Credit Suisse notes. “We will all be parsing which securities in AT1 space have a similar trigger to CS’s and which don’t, which banks need to issue AT1s and which don’t.”</p><p>Even before the wipeout, rising worries about the financial system caused the average AT1 note to tumble over the last two weeks, with pricing indicated at almost 20% below face value — one of the steepest discounts on record.</p><h2>‘Poorly Designed’</h2><p>AT1s were dreamt up by regulators to act as an additional buffer of capital between shareholders and bondholders. Yet the legal framework has always been subject to uncertainty and some controversy.</p><p>The latest move by policy makers shows that the “structure has proved to be poorly designed and will be probably phased out,” said Francesco Castelli, head of fixed income at Banor Capital.</p><p>The decision by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority is “probably legal,” he said, adding he expects Credit Suisse’s AT1 obligations to trade at close to zero tomorrow. “Holders will only have some recovery chance in court.” Castelli owns bonds issued by the bank but declined to say if he has a position in the AT1s.</p><p>Still, the decision to wipe out the holders of those bonds gets support from John McClain, portfolio manager at Brandywine Global Investment Management.</p><p>“It’s absolutely the right thing to do to prevent moral hazard from creeping into that part of the market. Those bonds were created for moments like this — similar to catastrophe bonds.”</p><h2>Counterparty Risk</h2><p>The acquisition of Credit Suisse comes after the failure of a number of US regional banks this month sent concerns rippling through the financial system. The Zurich-based lender’s bonds and shares plunged and counterparties on trades began buying protection against a possible default.</p><p>A collapse of the bank would have caused huge collateral damage to the Swiss financial industry, and a risk of contagion for UBS and other banks, the country’s finance minister Karin Keller-Sutter said at a press conference on Sunday.</p><p>“The bankruptcy of a global systematically important bank would have caused irreparable economic turmoil in Switzerland and throughout the world,” she said.</p><p>Traders quickly made clear they had some skepticism about the deal. UBS’s credit default swaps, derivatives often used to gauge a borrower’s credit risk, widened by at least 40 basis points to 215 bps for five-year contracts, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

That’s not supposed to be the pecking order, some holders in the bonds insist.“This just makes no sense,” said Patrik Kauffmann, a fixed-income portfolio manager at Aquila Asset Management, who holds the notes. “Shareholders should get zero” because “it’s crystal clear that AT1s are senior to stocks.”One UK bank CEO put it even more bluntly: The Swiss have killed this key corner of funding for lenders, he said, asking not to be named because the situation is sensitive. His comments underscore how the global financial community is on edge after the UBS takeover of Credit Suisse, which came on the heels of the collapse of three regional US banks.Prices of AT1s in Asia slid on Monday, with debt securities of some lenders in the region dropping by record amounts. Bank of East Asia Ltd.’s 5.825% perpetual dollar note slumped 9.4 cents on the dollar to about 80 cents, which would be a record decline if maintained through the end of Monday’s trading, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.HSBC Holdings Plc’s 8% AT1 fell about 5 cents Monday to below 90 cents, according to credit traders. That would be its biggest daily drop since it began trading early this month.It’s not that the bonds weren’t supposed to take some of the blow from the Credit Suisse collapse. In fact, that’s in large part what they were created to do when they were first conceived by European regulators in the aftermath of the global financial crisis, as a way to impose losses on creditors when banks start to fail without resorting to taxpayer money.Yet, by privileging equity investors over holders of the riskiest bank securities, it’s left the bond community confused and rattled about who ranks first when it comes to the hierarchy of investor claims the next time a lender is in trouble.With litigation potentially brewing, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. traders were preparing to take bids on claims against Credit Suisse’s riskiest bonds for investors betting they can ultimately recover some value.“Wiping out AT1 holders while paying substantial amounts to shareholders goes against all the resolution principles and rules that were agreed internationally after 2008,” according to Jérôme Legras, head of research at Axiom Alternative Investments, who said the firm owns AT1 bonds issued by Credit Suisse.From the perspective of Swiss officials, it was able to force a write-off of the securities because it needed to boost Credit Suisse’s capital and resolve its liquidity problems. The bonds typically face a haircut whenever government support is offered to a lender facing solvency problems.Yet market participants say the move will likely lead to a disruptive industry-wide repricing. The market for new AT1 bonds will likely go into deep freeze and the cost of risky bank funding risks jumping higher given the regulatory decision caught some creditors off-guard, say traders.That would give bank treasurers fewer options to raise capital at a time of market stress, with the Federal Reserve and five other central banks announcing coordinated action on Sunday to boost dollar liquidity.“The AT1 market will be shut now for new issuance for a while,” said Luke Hickmore, investment director at abrdn Plc, who holds a small number of the Credit Suisse notes. “We will all be parsing which securities in AT1 space have a similar trigger to CS’s and which don’t, which banks need to issue AT1s and which don’t.”Even before the wipeout, rising worries about the financial system caused the average AT1 note to tumble over the last two weeks, with pricing indicated at almost 20% below face value — one of the steepest discounts on record.‘Poorly Designed’AT1s were dreamt up by regulators to act as an additional buffer of capital between shareholders and bondholders. Yet the legal framework has always been subject to uncertainty and some controversy.The latest move by policy makers shows that the “structure has proved to be poorly designed and will be probably phased out,” said Francesco Castelli, head of fixed income at Banor Capital.The decision by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority is “probably legal,” he said, adding he expects Credit Suisse’s AT1 obligations to trade at close to zero tomorrow. “Holders will only have some recovery chance in court.” Castelli owns bonds issued by the bank but declined to say if he has a position in the AT1s.Still, the decision to wipe out the holders of those bonds gets support from John McClain, portfolio manager at Brandywine Global Investment Management.“It’s absolutely the right thing to do to prevent moral hazard from creeping into that part of the market. Those bonds were created for moments like this — similar to catastrophe bonds.”Counterparty RiskThe acquisition of Credit Suisse comes after the failure of a number of US regional banks this month sent concerns rippling through the financial system. The Zurich-based lender’s bonds and shares plunged and counterparties on trades began buying protection against a possible default.A collapse of the bank would have caused huge collateral damage to the Swiss financial industry, and a risk of contagion for UBS and other banks, the country’s finance minister Karin Keller-Sutter said at a press conference on Sunday.“The bankruptcy of a global systematically important bank would have caused irreparable economic turmoil in Switzerland and throughout the world,” she said.Traders quickly made clear they had some skepticism about the deal. UBS’s credit default swaps, derivatives often used to gauge a borrower’s credit risk, widened by at least 40 basis points to 215 bps for five-year contracts, according to people with knowledge of the matter. They asked not to be named as the information is private.As part of the takeover, the Swiss central bank is offering a 100 billion-franc liquidity assistance to UBS and the government is granting a 9 billion-franc guarantee for potential losses from assets it is taking on. That comes after Credit Suisse was left deeply wounded by everything from the blowup of Archegos to the collapse of a suite of funds it ran with Greensill Capital.“Hindsight is wonderful,” Credit Suisse Chairman Axel Lehmann said at Sunday’s press conference. “We were overtaken by legacy situations, by risks that materialized last year. We were affected by a market model that no longer works in this environment.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":123,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943138936,"gmtCreate":1679263180126,"gmtModify":1679263184052,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤔","listText":"🤔","text":"🤔","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943138936","repostId":"2320569978","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2320569978","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1679189769,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2320569978?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-19 09:36","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Breakout Growth Stocks You Can Buy and Hold for the Next Decade","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2320569978","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"These stocks are up over 30% year to date and could have room to run.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Inflation, supply shortages, and rising interest rates were too much for the markets last year.

Advanced Micro DevicesCompanies across just about every industry are investing in cloud services and AI to more cost-effectively run their business, speed up product development, and power personalized recommendations.

As revenue growth slowed, the stock tumbled, but it might have sold off a little too much given the continued revenue stability of the business.Data by YCharts. TTM = Trailing 12 month.Roblox is tapping into a powerful long-term trend in socialized gaming. More players are jumping into games these days to hang out with friends as much as anything else. Moreover, Roblox is not just a gaming platform but also offers plenty of non-gaming experiences, such as virtual music concerts and brand-themed worlds from Nike, Chipotle Mexican Grill, among others.One metric that signals a buying opportunity is the continued growth in users. Roblox ended 2022 with 58.8 million daily active users, up from 49.5 million in 2021 and 37.1 million in 2020.Revenue has trailed the growth in users over the last few years, but the Q4 earnings report showed a sharp increase in bookings (a non-GAAP measure of revenue). This indicates user monetization is starting to catch up to the recent growth in new players.Roblox stock looks expensive relative to other video game and social media stocks, currently trading at a price-to-sales (P/S) multiple of 11.6. But there are not many gaming and social media companies reporting double-digit growth in bookings and daily active users right now either.If Roblox can successfully monetize its new players over the long term through more immersive gaming experiences and advertising, the stock could be a home run over the next decade.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":253,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943355280,"gmtCreate":1679185505840,"gmtModify":1679185510769,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943355280","repostId":"2320037801","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2320037801","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1679110229,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2320037801?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-18 11:30","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2 Sizzling Hot Stocks to Buy Right Now","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2320037801","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"The Trade Desk and Nvidia are easily outpacing the market.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>The <b>S&P 500</b> has gained about 1.3% so far this year, and investors searching for bigger gains are having to contend with a very volatile market.

Back in late 2007 and early 2008, when they all failed or were rescued, none of the above was systemically important. And few observers would have predicted the nightmarish crisis that was to strike within the year, felling behemoths from Wall Street’s venerable Lehman Brothers to Royal Bank of Scotland, then the biggest bank in the world.</p><p>Fifteen years later, after a week in which four banks — Silicon Valley Bank, Signature and First Republic in the US, and Credit Suisse in Europe — teetered and were propped up in one way or another, it is no wonder that investors are questioning whether we are facing 2007-style problems that could soon spiral into another full-blown 2008-style disaster.</p><p>There are good reasons to hope not. The primary causes of the 2008 crisis — a glut of poor-quality subprime mortgages that had been spread round the world via derivatives on to the balance sheets of poorly capitalised banks — do not apply in 2023. Credit quality remains decent. And bank capital is two to three times stronger than it was a decade and a half ago.</p><p>Such reassurances have felt empty though in the face of the market panic afflicting bank shares. European banks are down by an average of 19 per cent in a fortnight; US banks by 17 per cent. On Wednesday Credit Suisse shares slumped by 30 per cent intraday, recovering only after central bank intervention.</p><p>Markets were not exactly calm by the end of the week but they had stabilised somewhat. This came after CS made use of a $54bn “bazooka” liquidity intervention by the Swiss National Bank, while the risk of US bank runs was offset by deposit guarantees, new Federal Reserve liquidity facilities and a Wall Street whipround.</p><p>Of course such interventions were not supposed to be necessary after the drama of 2008. The vast package of post-crisis regulatory reforms was designed to ensure there could be no repeat of the domino collapses of banks on both sides of the Atlantic. New minimum levels of equity capital were devised, regulatory stress tests were introduced and liquidity ratios were toughened, dictating that more ready funds should be available to meet customer withdrawal requests.</p><p>This week’s problems in the US were explicitly caused by a failure there to apply these rules to anything other than the eight biggest banks. SVB was brought to its knees by a combination of poor interest rate risk management and lax regulatory oversight, leaving it vulnerable to a run on deposit withdrawals.</p><p>A similar phenomenon afflicted Signature, a crypto-focused bank, hours later. First Republic, another regional bank, became a particular target after panicked investors realised it would not benefit from the special Federal Reserve funding vehicle launched in the wake of SVB’s failure, because it lacked the requisite collateral to tap the scheme.</p><p>As investors looked for victims in Europe, attention settled on Credit Suisse, long seen as the region’s weakest big bank. It shares little or no common ground with SVB — its regulatory oversight is robust, its interest rate risk is hedged. But it has been accident-prone and slow to restructure. A decade or more of bad management and scandals has left the group’s reputation severely tarnished — a particularly bad thing when much of your business model rests on persuading billionaires to entrust their wealth to you. At the same time longstanding shareholders have deserted the bank to be replaced with unhelpful new ones.</p><p>There is even less fundamental reason to distrust the viability of European banks more broadly. Credit losses are low, capital levels are strong and they have come through stress tests.</p><p>But this bullish assessment is still being trumped by bearish nerves — and some logic. Central bank efforts to tame inflation will produce recessionary pressures, pushing banks’ loan losses higher and potentially eating into capital buffers. At the same time unexpected damage may be inflicted on less regulated, but similarly important, parts of the financial system that have got used to ultra-low interest rates, possibly including pensions, private equity and hedge funds.

Back in late 2007 and early 2008, when they all failed or were rescued, none of the above was systemically important. And few observers would have predicted the nightmarish crisis that was to strike within the year, felling behemoths from Wall Street’s venerable Lehman Brothers to Royal Bank of Scotland, then the biggest bank in the world.Fifteen years later, after a week in which four banks — Silicon Valley Bank, Signature and First Republic in the US, and Credit Suisse in Europe — teetered and were propped up in one way or another, it is no wonder that investors are questioning whether we are facing 2007-style problems that could soon spiral into another full-blown 2008-style disaster.There are good reasons to hope not. The primary causes of the 2008 crisis — a glut of poor-quality subprime mortgages that had been spread round the world via derivatives on to the balance sheets of poorly capitalised banks — do not apply in 2023. Credit quality remains decent. And bank capital is two to three times stronger than it was a decade and a half ago.Such reassurances have felt empty though in the face of the market panic afflicting bank shares. European banks are down by an average of 19 per cent in a fortnight; US banks by 17 per cent. On Wednesday Credit Suisse shares slumped by 30 per cent intraday, recovering only after central bank intervention.Markets were not exactly calm by the end of the week but they had stabilised somewhat. This came after CS made use of a $54bn “bazooka” liquidity intervention by the Swiss National Bank, while the risk of US bank runs was offset by deposit guarantees, new Federal Reserve liquidity facilities and a Wall Street whipround.Of course such interventions were not supposed to be necessary after the drama of 2008. The vast package of post-crisis regulatory reforms was designed to ensure there could be no repeat of the domino collapses of banks on both sides of the Atlantic. New minimum levels of equity capital were devised, regulatory stress tests were introduced and liquidity ratios were toughened, dictating that more ready funds should be available to meet customer withdrawal requests.This week’s problems in the US were explicitly caused by a failure there to apply these rules to anything other than the eight biggest banks. SVB was brought to its knees by a combination of poor interest rate risk management and lax regulatory oversight, leaving it vulnerable to a run on deposit withdrawals.A similar phenomenon afflicted Signature, a crypto-focused bank, hours later. First Republic, another regional bank, became a particular target after panicked investors realised it would not benefit from the special Federal Reserve funding vehicle launched in the wake of SVB’s failure, because it lacked the requisite collateral to tap the scheme.As investors looked for victims in Europe, attention settled on Credit Suisse, long seen as the region’s weakest big bank. It shares little or no common ground with SVB — its regulatory oversight is robust, its interest rate risk is hedged. But it has been accident-prone and slow to restructure. A decade or more of bad management and scandals has left the group’s reputation severely tarnished — a particularly bad thing when much of your business model rests on persuading billionaires to entrust their wealth to you. At the same time longstanding shareholders have deserted the bank to be replaced with unhelpful new ones.There is even less fundamental reason to distrust the viability of European banks more broadly. Credit losses are low, capital levels are strong and they have come through stress tests.But this bullish assessment is still being trumped by bearish nerves — and some logic. Central bank efforts to tame inflation will produce recessionary pressures, pushing banks’ loan losses higher and potentially eating into capital buffers. At the same time unexpected damage may be inflicted on less regulated, but similarly important, parts of the financial system that have got used to ultra-low interest rates, possibly including pensions, private equity and hedge funds. The gilts crisis in the UK pensions market last autumn was a warning sign of such risks.Even if the chances of another full-blown financial meltdown are low, our ability to deal with it may be less. Back in 2008, policymakers were able to slash interest rates, launch quantitative easing and flood the banks with rescue capital and liquidity. With government balance sheets today far more stretched, and interest rates needing to rise to combat inflation, the weaponry at their disposal is dangerously diminished.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":78,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943071862,"gmtCreate":1679008377156,"gmtModify":1679008380588,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤔","listText":"🤔","text":"🤔","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":13,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943071862","repostId":"2320399013","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2320399013","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1679007262,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2320399013?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-17 06:54","market":"us","language":"en","title":"U.S. Stocks-Wall Street Closes Higher As First Republic Helps Lift Banks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2320399013","media":"Reuters","summary":"(Reuters) - A strong rebound by financials helped Wall Street's main indexes close firmly positive o","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>(Reuters) - A strong rebound by financials helped Wall Street's main indexes close firmly positive on Thursday, after some of the country's largest lenders came to the rescue of embattled First Republic Bank.</p><p>The technology sector also contributed to the gains, helping to boost the Nasdaq Composite to its strongest performance since Feb. 2, 2022.</p><p>The latest twist in the U.S. regional banks saga came on the heels of a 50 basis point rate hike by the European Central Bank, which earlier in the day had dampened investor sentiment already hurt by fears of a banking crisis.</p><p>Financial institutions, including JP Morgan Chase & Co and Morgan Stanley, confirmed earlier reports they would deposit up to $30 billion into First Republic Bank's coffers to stabilize the lender.</p><p>"Banks are looking out for one another," said Huntington Private Bank chief investment officer, John Augustine.</p><p>"We had two outliers go down and now they want to save what is considered a more mainstream bank."</p><p>Shares of JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley were up 1.94% and 1.89% respectively, while the lifeline buoyed First Republic Bank, which gained 9.98%.</p><p>The positive sentiment spread to other regional lenders, with Alliance Bancorp and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PACW\">PacWest Bancorp</a> advancing 14.09% and 0.7%, respectively, following a negative start.</p><p>The KBW regional banking index gained 3.26%, while the S&P 500 banking index advanced 2.16%, as both sub-indexes reversed losses.</p><p>Concerns about banks have rattled the stock market in recent days after the collapse of SVB Financial fueled contagion fears.</p><p>Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the U.S. banking system remains sound and Americans can feel confident that their deposits will be there when needed.</p><p>U.S.-listed shares of Credit Suisse advanced after the bank secured a credit line of up to $54 billion from the Swiss National Bank to shore up liquidity and investor confidence.</p><p>The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 371.98 points, or 1.17%, to 32,246.55, the S&P 500 gained 68.35 points, or 1.76%, to 3,960.28 and the Nasdaq Composite added 283.23 points, or 2.48%, to 11,717.28.</p><p>Data showed the number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits fell more than expected last week, pointing to continued labor market strength, which could persuade the Fed to keep raising rates further.</p><p>Weak retail sales figures, as well as data showing a downward trend in producer inflation, on Wednesday had bolstered bets of a small rate hike by the Federal Reserve at its meet concluding on March 22.</p><p>Money markets are still largely pricing in a 25-basis-point rate hike by the Fed at its March 22 policy announcement. .</p><p>Facebook parent <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/META\">Meta Platforms</a> and Snapchat operator <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SNAP\">Snap Inc</a> climbed 3.63% and 7.25%, after the U.S. administration threatened to impose a ban on rival TikTok.</p><p>Advancing issues outnumbered declining ones on the NYSE by a 2.80-to-1 ratio;

The urge to react has been intense. Doing so has mostly been a mistake.</p><p>It’s still early, and things can get fluid when financial stress is afoot. But amid warnings of a banking crisis, a credit-fomented recession, pivoting central banks and stagflation, the best strategy so far — particularly in stocks — has been to sit still.</p><p>The S&P 500 just capped its second straight up week, and while Treasuries have dealt body blows to short sellers, holding on through the worst volatility in four decades would’ve reaped sizable profits.</p><p>Closing your ears to cacophony is standard investment advice that is often borne out. “Panicking never pays,” says April LaRusse, head of investment specialists at Insight Investments. “The smartest thing to do when you have a lot of uncertainty is to sit back and gather information and do your analysis and not jump trying to make big changes.”</p><p>Heeding it now requires near-heroic composure. In a span of weeks, the dominant market theme has shifted from a “no landing” scenario where growth persists at the same time central banks push restrictive policy for longer, to everything from banking chaos to a recession to some type of Fed-fueled renaissance in technology shares.</p><p>“There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen,” Marko Kolanovic, chief global markets strategist at JPMorgan Chase & Co., wrote in a note.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a7ffbf306dc4a8dfc083f42a0055371d\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>For now, bulls are enjoying the equity resilience, emboldened by hopes that the Federal Reserve will soon pause its aggressive inflation-fighting campaign and regulators including Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen can contain any financial fallout. The S&P 500 added 1.4% over five days, almost erasing its entire loss from the day before the plunge in regional banks two weeks ago. The Nasdaq 100 climbed for a third week in four, sitting about 5% above its pre-crisis level.</p><p>Bears are quick to note: the same thing happened in 2008, when the Lehman Brothers collapse incited extreme turbulence, but stock benchmarks still managed to end the ensuing week virtually flat. At present, stocks remain closer to their lows than their highs of last year, when a 25% plunge in the S&P 500 sent a clear recessionary signal — a lot of pain is priced in. But that was true when the worst leg of the last crisis kicked in as well.</p><p>To be sure, no one, including policymakers at the Fed, has a firm view on the impact from the banking turmoil. While almost everyone including Fed Chair Jerome Powell expects the crisis to contribute to a tightening of financial conditions, consensus is scant on the exact scope of damage. Among numerousattempts to quantitythe impact of lending turmoil on monetary policy, estimates range from 50 basis points to 150 basis points in the equivalent of rate hikes.</p><p>It’s the same when trying to gauge the effect on standard economic indicators. At Citigroup Inc., strategists suggest the banking crisis is already curbing consumer demand, citing the firm’s data on credit card spending. By contrast, card users at JPMorgan and Bank of America Corp. have stayed buoyant, separate reports from their economists show.</p><p>“The Fed has raised the temperature, the water is starting to boil, and we’re starting to see some frogs start to die,” said George Cipolloni, portfolio manager at Penn Mutual Asset Management. “As long as the Fed keeps that temperature at a certain level, there is the potential for more bank failures in this cycle. And that’s one of the reasons why Yellen and some other people are responding the way they are in terms of guaranteeing deposits.”</p><p>While split opinions are a constant feature in investing, the extent of the divergence has rarely been this broad. In the equity market, the gap between the highest and lowest year-end target for the S&P 500 is 47%, the widest at this time of year in two decades, data compiled by Bloomberg show.</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec94e1d853c76d9eb6b5a6300424544c\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Conflict is also on display in fixed income. Even as Powell insisted Wednesday that rate cuts are not his “base case,” bond traders stuck to bets that the central bank will reverse course this year.Swap rateslinked to policy meeting dates now show cuts totaling about one percentage point by year-end.</p><p>Ever-changing views of the economy and Fed have underpinned an almost unprecedented stretch of turbulence in government bonds. For an 11th session through Thursday, two-year Treasury yields moved more than 10 basis points, a run of wild swings not seen since 1981. Among these sessions, seven were up and four down, exerting pain for bulls and bears alike.</p><p><img src=\"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/7a2961af4bdc042cbca907c5eaac1423\" tg-width=\"930\" tg-height=\"523\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>Amid all the confusion and volatility, the Nasdaq 100 has stood out as one of the best-performing assets this year, thanks to the dominance of cash-rich tech megacaps.

The urge to react has been intense. Doing so has mostly been a mistake.It’s still early, and things can get fluid when financial stress is afoot. But amid warnings of a banking crisis, a credit-fomented recession, pivoting central banks and stagflation, the best strategy so far — particularly in stocks — has been to sit still.The S&P 500 just capped its second straight up week, and while Treasuries have dealt body blows to short sellers, holding on through the worst volatility in four decades would’ve reaped sizable profits.Closing your ears to cacophony is standard investment advice that is often borne out. “Panicking never pays,” says April LaRusse, head of investment specialists at Insight Investments. “The smartest thing to do when you have a lot of uncertainty is to sit back and gather information and do your analysis and not jump trying to make big changes.”Heeding it now requires near-heroic composure. In a span of weeks, the dominant market theme has shifted from a “no landing” scenario where growth persists at the same time central banks push restrictive policy for longer, to everything from banking chaos to a recession to some type of Fed-fueled renaissance in technology shares.“There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks where decades happen,” Marko Kolanovic, chief global markets strategist at JPMorgan Chase & Co., wrote in a note.For now, bulls are enjoying the equity resilience, emboldened by hopes that the Federal Reserve will soon pause its aggressive inflation-fighting campaign and regulators including Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen can contain any financial fallout. The S&P 500 added 1.4% over five days, almost erasing its entire loss from the day before the plunge in regional banks two weeks ago. The Nasdaq 100 climbed for a third week in four, sitting about 5% above its pre-crisis level.Bears are quick to note: the same thing happened in 2008, when the Lehman Brothers collapse incited extreme turbulence, but stock benchmarks still managed to end the ensuing week virtually flat. At present, stocks remain closer to their lows than their highs of last year, when a 25% plunge in the S&P 500 sent a clear recessionary signal — a lot of pain is priced in. But that was true when the worst leg of the last crisis kicked in as well.To be sure, no one, including policymakers at the Fed, has a firm view on the impact from the banking turmoil. While almost everyone including Fed Chair Jerome Powell expects the crisis to contribute to a tightening of financial conditions, consensus is scant on the exact scope of damage. Among numerousattempts to quantitythe impact of lending turmoil on monetary policy, estimates range from 50 basis points to 150 basis points in the equivalent of rate hikes.It’s the same when trying to gauge the effect on standard economic indicators. At Citigroup Inc., strategists suggest the banking crisis is already curbing consumer demand, citing the firm’s data on credit card spending. By contrast, card users at JPMorgan and Bank of America Corp. have stayed buoyant, separate reports from their economists show.“The Fed has raised the temperature, the water is starting to boil, and we’re starting to see some frogs start to die,” said George Cipolloni, portfolio manager at Penn Mutual Asset Management. “As long as the Fed keeps that temperature at a certain level, there is the potential for more bank failures in this cycle. And that’s one of the reasons why Yellen and some other people are responding the way they are in terms of guaranteeing deposits.”While split opinions are a constant feature in investing, the extent of the divergence has rarely been this broad. In the equity market, the gap between the highest and lowest year-end target for the S&P 500 is 47%, the widest at this time of year in two decades, data compiled by Bloomberg show.Conflict is also on display in fixed income. Even as Powell insisted Wednesday that rate cuts are not his “base case,” bond traders stuck to bets that the central bank will reverse course this year.Swap rateslinked to policy meeting dates now show cuts totaling about one percentage point by year-end.Ever-changing views of the economy and Fed have underpinned an almost unprecedented stretch of turbulence in government bonds. For an 11th session through Thursday, two-year Treasury yields moved more than 10 basis points, a run of wild swings not seen since 1981. Among these sessions, seven were up and four down, exerting pain for bulls and bears alike.Amid all the confusion and volatility, the Nasdaq 100 has stood out as one of the best-performing assets this year, thanks to the dominance of cash-rich tech megacaps. While the index is up almost 17%, getting there has been stomach-churning. Bad timing can be punishing: missing the best five days would have left investors with a gain of only 1%.To Que Nguyen, chief investment officer of equity strategies at Research Affiliates, investors had better prepare for a bumpy road ahead.“Most of the time when you have a debt or liquidity problem, it doesn’t go away in two weeks,” she said. “The markets are stable when things are over.

A screen of five ETFs points to a list of highly favored companiesThere are always fads in the stock market, but now we are in the midst of what could turn out to be a revolutionary trend that will last much longer than any fad — artificial intelligence.In the Need to Know column on Feb. 9, Edward Stanley, who leads a team of strategists at Morgan Stanley, was quoted calling AI the real deal: “Generative AI, now popularized by ChatGPT, is showing all the usual hallmarks of hype,” he wrote. But then he added that “something suggests the AI hype is worth considering seriously,” calling it “the fastest platform to a million users and fastest to 100 million site views.”Stanley called generative AI a “serious contender” for “tech diffusion with real market impact potential.”An AI stock screenWhen screening companies by business focus, it helps to have an industry label, such as “semiconductors.” Such isn’t the case for AI. One easy way to jump on the trend bandwagon would be to purchase shares of Microsoft Corp. MSFT, which provided $1 billion in funding for OpenAI when it began to develop ChatGPT, and is now ponying up billions more. Microsoft has been demonstrating how it will integrate ChatGPT with its Bing search engine.For a new screen of AI-related stocks, we began by looking at the holdings of five exchange-traded funds with AI in their names:The Global X Robotics & Artificial Intelligence ETF holds 42 stocks. It tracks an index of companies listed in developed markets. The companies are expected to benefit from the increased utilization of robotics and artificial intelligence. The fund is weighted by market capitalization; its largest holding is Nvidia Corp. NVDA, which makes up 9.6% of its portfolio. It is the largest ETF listed here with $1.6 billion in assets under management. It was established September 2016.The iShares Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Multisector ETF holds 119 stocks that are equal-weighted, as it tracks a global index of companies that derive at east 50% of revenue from robotics or AI, or have significant exposure to related industries. This ETF has $269 million in assets; it was launched in June 2018.The $205 million First Trust Nasdaq Artificial Intelligence & Robotics ETF has 111 stocks in its portfolio, with a modified weighting based on how directly they are involved in AI or Robotics. It was established in February 2018.The Robo Global Artificial Intelligence ETF has $24 million in assets and was established in May 2020. This fund holds 69 stocks and isn’t concentrated. It uses a scoring system to weight its holdings by percentage of revenue derived from AI, with holdings also subject to minimum market capitalization and liquidity requirements.The newest and smallest ETF on this list is the WisdomTree Artificial Intelligence and Innovation Fund, which was established on Dec. 7 and has $1.8 million in assets and holds 76 stocks in an equal-weighted portfolio. According to FactSet, stocks are handpicked and selected companies “generate at least 50% of their revenue from AI and innovation activities, including those related to software, semiconductors, hardware technology, machine learning and innovative products.”Taking all the stocks held by the ETFs together, we narrowed the list to 96 stocks held by at least two of the funds. We then narrowed further to 88 companies covered by at least five analysts polled by FactSet.Among those 88 companies, 30 are rated a “buy” by at least 75% of analysts covering the stocks. Sometimes price targets can get ahead of analysts’ targets, especially in such a hot area of the stock market.So we have narrowed the list further to the 20 stocks for which analysts see the most upside potential over the next 12 months, based on consensus price targets. Prices and targets are in local currencies, where the stocks are listed.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":16,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9927509688,"gmtCreate":1672528240944,"gmtModify":1676538700718,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤔","listText":"🤔","text":"🤔","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":17,"commentSize":2,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9927509688","repostId":"1144201657","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1144201657","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1672454951,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1144201657?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-12-31 10:49","market":"us","language":"en","title":"2022 Recap: How the S&P 500 Sectors Have Performed?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1144201657","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"The year 2022 has been very challenging for the U.S. stock market.

In general, the energy sector's performance was quite positive. </p><h2>Consumer Staples</h2><p>When the economy shows signs of slowing down, investors and traders tend to flock to this specific industry since it works as a safe haven for their money. But it has nevertheless posted losses of over 3% this year. As a general rule, during times of economic difficulty, this industry does see a larger proportion of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity because values decrease to a level that is more acceptable. On the other hand, this year there have been very few significant deals that have taken place. </p><h2>Financial Sector</h2><p>This specific industry, which many people believed would do well, failed to impress on the scoreboard, and its value has dropped by more than 12% this year. The Federal Reserve in the United States has recently boosted interest rates at the most aggressive levels in decades. This caused a tremendous amount of volatility in the market, which resulted in a significant number of banks reporting a respectable profit from their trading operations. In spite of this, many people have started to examine the state of their company's balance sheet as a result of rising interest rates because they are concerned about their ability to weather an economic downturn and maintain a healthy financial position. </p><h2>Information Technology Sector</h2><p>The information technology sector of the S&P 500 saw a year-to-date decrease of 28.91%. The Federal Reserve proceeded to rapidly boost interest rates, which resulted in a slowdown in economic activity. Additionally, there was a great possibility that a recession would take place in the United States. As a result, a huge number of corporations reduced their CAPM. As a direct consequence of this, we saw a significant number of firms' stock prices significantly decline.</p><h2>Consumer Discretionary Sector</h2><p>This industry has lost more than 37% in 2022. It is important to keep in mind that this specific industry is representative of discretionary expenditure, and we are aware that, as a result of inflation and interest rates reaching multi-decade highs, disposable income was tremendously affected in a negative way. Consumers have been having a hard time keeping up with their cost of living and have been making cutbacks wherever they can find the opportunity. As a result, we saw a significant increase in the amount of competitive selling in this industry.</p><h2>Communication Services Sector</h2><p>Shares of communications services firms have had a year decline in value of 40.42 percent. This collection of companies carried a substantial amount of debt, which, when combined with rising interest rates and subsequent increases in the amount of interest that was payable each month, was a significant strain on the company's finances. In addition, interest rates continued to rise, which further increased the amount of interest that was payable each month. It is also usual for communications companies to have high dividend payout ratios, which made matters even more difficult for them.

As a direct result of all of these challenges, this sector has had a terrible year.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2613,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9943330058,"gmtCreate":1679105877275,"gmtModify":1679105881488,"author":{"id":"3585385530619181","authorId":"3585385530619181","name":"h20_mako","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/815dd8430435288774e9be0c03637f83","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3585385530619181","authorIdStr":"3585385530619181"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"🤔","listText":"🤔","text":"🤔","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":16,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9943330058","repostId":"1126461227","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1126461227","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1679104200,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1126461227?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-03-18 09:50","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Are Banks on the Edge of Another 2008-Style Precipice?","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1126461227","media":"Financial Times","summary":"Bearish nerves seem to be winning right now — despite good reasons to hope notUS bank shares are dow","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Bearish nerves seem to be winning right now — despite good reasons to hope not</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/51ea2dddf4011084e557bd147c970adf\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"394\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/><span>US bank shares are down 17% over the past fortnight © Brendan McDermid/Reuters</span></p><p>Northern Rock, Bear Stearns, Countrywide Financial and Alliance & Leicester.

But Mr. Buffett retained his sense of optimism in his annual letter to investors Saturday, saying he attributes much of his success over the years to the resilience of the U.S. economy.</p><p>“I have been investing for 80 years—more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant—almost enthusiasm—for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America,” Mr. Buffett said in the letter.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, widely regarded as one of the world’s top investors, has been publishing the letters for more than half a century. Over that time, he hasn’t just reflected on the past year for his company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., but also shared his thoughts on everything from esoteric accounting rules to his aversion to excessive risk-taking.</p><p>Saturday’s letter offered readers a glimpse into how Mr. Buffett, 92, viewed what wound up being a shaky stretch for markets.</p><p>The volatility offered Berkshire an opportunity to jump in and buy stocks. While Berkshire largely bought back its own shares in 2021, it focused more in 2022 on investing in other companies—opening up new positions in media company Paramount Global and building-materials manufacturer Louisiana-Pacific Corp., among other businesses, and swiftly becoming Occidental Petroleum Corp.’s single biggest shareholder.</p><p>As of the end of 2022, Berkshire was the largest shareholder of eight companies—American Express Co., Bank of America Corp., Chevron Corp., Coca-Cola Co., HP Inc., Moody’s Corp., Occidental and Paramount Global.</p><p>“America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true,” Mr. Buffett said.</p><p>Berkshire also released its results for 2022 on Saturday.</p><p>The Omaha, Neb., company, which owns businesses including insurer Geico, railroad BNSF Railway and chocolate maker See’s Candies, posted a loss of $22.82 billion for the year, stung by $67.9 billion in investment and derivative contract losses. In 2021, Berkshire posted a profit of $90.8 billion.</p><p>Total revenue rose 9.4% to $302.1 billion.</p><p>Berkshire’s operating earnings, which exclude some investment results, rose to a record $30.8 billion.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, Berkshire’s chief executive, has long held that operating earnings are a better reflection of how Berkshire is doing, since accounting rules require the company to include unrealized gains and losses from its massive investment portfolio in its net income. Volatile markets can make Berkshire’s net income change substantially from quarter to quarter, regardless of how its underlying businesses are doing.</p><p>“Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades,” Mr. Buffett said in his letter. “But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors,” he said, adding that he and his right-hand man Charlie Munger urged shareholders to focus instead on Berkshire’s operating earnings, which rose to a record for the full year in 2022.</p><h2>Read the full letter here:</h2><p>To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.:</p><p>Charlie Munger, my long-time partner, and I have the job of managing the savings of a great number of individuals. We are grateful for their enduring trust, a relationship that often spans much of their adult lifetime. It is those dedicated savers that are forefront in my mind as I write this letter.</p><p>A common belief is that people choose to save when young, expecting thereby to maintain their living standards after retirement. Any assets that remain at death, this theory says, will usually be left to their families or, possibly, to friends and philanthropy.</p><p>Our experience has differed. We believe Berkshire’s individual holders largely to be of the once-a-saver, always-a-saver variety. Though these people live well, they eventually dispense most of their funds to philanthropic organizations. These, in turn, redistribute the funds by expenditures intended to improve the lives of a great many people who are unrelated to the original benefactor. Sometimes, the results have been spectacular.</p><p>The disposition of money unmasks humans. Charlie and I watch with pleasure the vast flow of Berkshire-generated funds to public needs and, alongside, the infrequency with which our shareholders opt for look-at-me assets and dynasty-building.</p><p>Who wouldn’t enjoy working for shareholders like ours?</p><h2>What We Do</h2><p>Charlie and I allocate your savings at Berkshire between two related forms of ownership. First, we invest in businesses that we control, usually buying 100% of each. Berkshire directs capital allocation at these subsidiaries and selects the CEOs who make day-by-day operating decisions. When large enterprises are being managed, both trust and rules are essential. Berkshire emphasizes the former to an unusual – some would say extreme – degree. Disappointments are inevitable. We are understanding about business mistakes; our tolerance for personal misconduct is zero.</p><p>In our second category of ownership, we buy publicly-traded stocks through which we passively own pieces of businesses. Holding these investments, we have no say in management.</p><p>Our goal in both forms of ownership is to make meaningful investments in businesses with both long-lasting favorable economic characteristics and trustworthy managers. Please note particularly that we own publicly-traded stocks based on our expectations about their long-term business performance, not because we view them as vehicles for adroit purchases and sales. That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.</p><p>Over the years, I have made many mistakes. Consequently, our extensive collection of businesses currently consists of a few enterprises that have truly extraordinary economics, many that enjoy very good economic characteristics, and a large group that are marginal. Along the way, other businesses in which I have invested have died, their products unwanted by the public. Capitalism has two sides: The system creates an ever-growing pile of losers while concurrently delivering a gusher of improved goods and services. Schumpeter called this phenomenon “creative destruction.”</p><p>One advantage of our publicly-traded segment is that – episodically – it becomes easy to buy pieces of wonderful businesses at wonderful prices. It’s crucial to understand that stocks often trade at truly foolish prices, both high and low. “Efficient” markets exist only in textbooks. In truth, marketable stocks and bonds are baffling, their behavior usually understandable only in retrospect.</p><p>Controlled businesses are a different breed. They sometimes command ridiculously higher prices than justified but are almost never available at bargain valuations. Unless under duress, the owner of a controlled business gives no thought to selling at a panic-type valuation.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At this point, a report card from me is appropriate: In 58 years of Berkshire management, most of my capital-allocation decisions have been no better than so-so. In some cases, also, bad moves by me have been rescued by very large doses of luck. (Remember our escapes from near-disasters at USAir and Salomon? I certainly do.)</p><p>Our satisfactory results have been the product of about a dozen truly good decisions – that would be about one every five years – and a sometimes-forgotten advantage that favors long-term investors such as Berkshire. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain.</p><h2>The Secret Sauce</h2><p>In August 1994 – yes, 1994 – Berkshire completed its seven-year purchase of the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola we now own. The total cost was $1.3 billion – then a very meaningful sum at Berkshire.</p><p>The cash dividend we received from Coke in 1994 was $75 million. By 2022, the dividend had increased to $704 million. Growth occurred every year, just as certain as birthdays. All Charlie and I were required to do was cash Coke’s quarterly dividend checks. We expect that those checks are highly likely to grow.</p><p>American Express is much the same story. Berkshire’s purchases of Amex were essentially completed in 1995 and, coincidentally, also cost $1.3 billion. Annual dividends received from this investment have grown from $41 million to $302 million. Those checks, too, seem highly likely to increase.</p><p>These dividend gains, though pleasing, are far from spectacular. But they bring with them important gains in stock prices. At yearend, our Coke investment was valued at $25 billion while Amex was recorded at $22 billion. Each holding now accounts for roughly 5% of Berkshire’s net worth, akin to its weighting long ago.</p><p>Assume, for a moment, I had made a similarly-sized investment mistake in the 1990s, one that flat-lined and simply retained its $1.3 billion value in 2022. (An example would be a high-grade 30-year bond.) That disappointing investment would now represent an insignificant 0.3% of Berkshire’s net worth and would be delivering to us an unchanged $80 million or so of annual income.</p><p>The lesson for investors: The weeds wither away in significance as the flowers bloom. Over time, it takes just a few winners to work wonders. And, yes, it helps to start early and live into your 90s as well.</p><h2>The Past Year in Brief</h2><p>Berkshire had a good year in 2022. The company’s operating earnings – our term for income calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), exclusive of capital gains or losses from equity holdings – set a record at $30.8 billion. Charlie and I focus on this operational figure and urge you to do so as well. The GAAP figure, absent our adjustment, fluctuates wildly and capriciously at every reporting date. Note its acrobatic behavior in 2022, which is in no way unusual:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69e74650656620f9fa3f1e55c15a90e5\" tg-width=\"797\" tg-height=\"207\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>The GAAP earnings are 100% misleading when viewed quarterly or even annually. Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades. But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors.</p><p>A second positive development for Berkshire last year was our purchase of Alleghany Corporation, a property-casualty insurer captained by Joe Brandon. I’ve worked with Joe in the past, and he understands both Berkshire and insurance. Alleghany delivers special value to us because Berkshire’s unmatched financial strength allows its insurance subsidiaries to follow valuable and enduring investment strategies unavailable to virtually all competitors.</p><p>Aided by Alleghany, our insurance float increased during 2022 from $147 billion to $164 billion. With disciplined underwriting, these funds have a decent chance of being cost-free over time. Since purchasing our first property-casualty insurer in 1967, Berkshire’s float has increased 8,000-fold through acquisitions, operations and innovations. Though not recognized in our financial statements, this float has been an extraordinary asset for Berkshire. New shareholders can get an understanding of its value by reading our annually updated explanation of float on page A-2.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>A very minor gain in per-share intrinsic value took place in 2022 through Berkshire share repurchases as well as similar moves at Apple and American Express, both significant investees of ours. At Berkshire, we directly increased your interest in our unique collection of businesses by repurchasing 1.2% of the company’s outstanding shares. At Apple and Amex, repurchases increased Berkshire’s ownership a bit without any cost to us.</p><p>The math isn’t complicated: When the share count goes down, your interest in our many businesses goes up. Every small bit helps if repurchases are made at value-accretive prices. Just as surely, when a company overpays for repurchases, the continuing shareholders lose. At such times, gains flow only to the selling shareholders and to the friendly, but expensive, investment banker who recommended the foolish purchases.</p><p>Gains from value-accretive repurchases, it should be emphasized, benefit all owners – in every respect. Imagine, if you will, three fully-informed shareholders of a local auto dealership, one of whom manages the business. Imagine, further, that one of the passive owners wishes to sell his interest back to the company at a price attractive to the two continuing shareholders. When completed, has this transaction harmed anyone? Is the manager somehow favored over the continuing passive owners? Has the public been hurt?</p><p>When you are told that all repurchases are harmful to shareholders or to the country, or particularly beneficial to CEOs, you are listening to either an economic illiterate or a silver-tongued demagogue (characters that are not mutually exclusive).</p><p>Almost endless details of Berkshire’s 2022 operations are laid out on pages K-33 – K-66. Charlie and I, along with many Berkshire shareholders, enjoy poring over the many facts and figures laid out in that section. These pages are not, however, required reading. There are many Berkshire centimillionaires and, yes, billionaires who have never studied our financial figures. They simply know that Charlie and I – along with our families and close friends – continue to have very significant investments in Berkshire, and they trust us to treat their money as we do our own.</p><p>And that is a promise we can make.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Finally, an important warning: Even the operating earnings figure that we favor can easily be manipulated by managers who wish to do so. Such tampering is often thought of as sophisticated by CEOs, directors and their advisors. Reporters and analysts embrace its existence as well. Beating “expectations” is heralded as a managerial triumph.</p><p>That activity is disgusting. It requires no talent to manipulate numbers: Only a deep desire to deceive is required. “Bold imaginative accounting,” as a CEO once described his deception to me, has become one of the shames of capitalism.</p><h2>58 Years – and a Few Figures</h2><p>In 1965, Berkshire was a one-trick pony, the owner of a venerable – but doomed – New England textile operation. With that business on a death march, Berkshire needed an immediate fresh start. Looking back, I was slow to recognize the severity of its problems.</p><p>And then came a stroke of good luck: National Indemnity became available in 1967, and we shifted our resources toward insurance and other non-textile operations.</p><p>Thus began our journey to 2023, a bumpy road involving a combination of continuous savings by our owners (that is, by their retaining earnings), the power of compounding, our avoidance of major mistakes and – most important of all – the American Tailwind. America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true.</p><p>Berkshire now enjoys major ownership in an unmatched collection of huge and diversified businesses. Let’s first look at the 5,000 or so publicly-held companies that trade daily on NASDAQ, the NYSE and related venues. Within this group is housed the members of the S&P 500 Index, an elite collection of large and well-known American companies.</p><p>In aggregate, the 500 earned $1.8 trillion in 2021. I don’t yet have the final results for 2022. Using, therefore, the 2021 figures, only 128 of the 500 (including Berkshire itself) earned $3 billion or more. Indeed, 23 lost money.</p><p>At yearend 2022, Berkshire was the largest owner of eight of these giants: American Express, Bank of America, Chevron, Coca-Cola, HP Inc., Moody’s, Occidental Petroleum and Paramount Global.</p><p>In addition to those eight investees, Berkshire owns 100% of BNSF and 92% of BH Energy, each with earnings that exceed the $3 billion mark noted above ($5.9 billion at BNSF and</p><p>$4.3 billion at BHE). Were these companies publicly-owned, they would replace two present members of the 500. All told, our ten controlled and non-controlled behemoths leave Berkshire more broadly aligned with the country’s economic future than is the case at any other U.S. company. (This calculation leaves aside “fiduciary” operations such as pension funds and investment companies.) In addition, Berkshire’s insurance operation, though conducted through many individually-managed subsidiaries, has a value comparable to BNSF or BHE.</p><p>As for the future, Berkshire will always hold a boatload of cash and U.S. Treasury bills along with a wide array of businesses. We will also avoid behavior that could result in any uncomfortable cash needs at inconvenient times, including financial panics and unprecedented insurance losses. Our CEO will always be the Chief Risk Officer – a task it is irresponsible to delegate. Additionally, our future CEOs will have a significant part of their net worth in Berkshire shares, bought with their own money. And yes, our shareholders will continue to save and prosper by retaining earnings.</p><p>At Berkshire, there will be no finish line.</p><h2>Some Surprising Facts About Federal Taxes</h2><p>During the decade ending in 2021, the United States Treasury received about $32.3 trillion in taxes while it spent $43.9 trillion.</p><p>Though economists, politicians and many of the public have opinions about the consequences of that huge imbalance, Charlie and I plead ignorance and firmly believe that near-term economic and market forecasts are worse than useless. Our job is to manage Berkshire’s operations and finances in a manner that will achieve an acceptable result over time and that will preserve the company’s unmatched staying power when financial panics or severe worldwide recessions occur. Berkshire also offers some modest protection from runaway inflation, but this attribute is far from perfect. Huge and entrenched fiscal deficits have consequences.</p><p>The $32 trillion of revenue was garnered by the Treasury through individual income taxes (48%), social security and related receipts (3412%), corporate income tax payments (812%) and a wide variety of lesser levies. Berkshire’s contribution via the corporate income tax was $32 billion during the decade, almost exactly a tenth of 1% of all money that the Treasury collected.</p><p>And that means – brace yourself – had there been roughly 1,000 taxpayers in the U.S. matching Berkshire’s payments, no other businesses nor any of the country’s 131 million households would have needed to pay any taxes to the federal government. Not a dime.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Millions, billions, trillions – we all know the words, but the sums involved are almost impossible to comprehend. Let’s put physical dimensions to the numbers:</p><p>- If you convert $1 million into newly-printed $100 bills, you will have a stack that reaches your chest.</p><p>- Perform the same exercise with $1 billion – this is getting exciting! – and the stack reaches about 34 of a mile into the sky.</p><p>- Finally, imagine piling up $32 billion, the total of Berkshire’s 2012-21 federal income tax payments. Now the stack grows to more than 21 miles in height, about three times the level at which commercial airplanes usually cruise.</p><p>When it comes to federal taxes, individuals who own Berkshire can unequivocally state “I gave at the office.”</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At Berkshire we hope and expect to pay much more in taxes during the next decade. We owe the country no less: America’s dynamism has made a huge contribution to whatever success Berkshire has achieved – a contribution Berkshire will always need. We count on the American Tailwind and, though it has been becalmed from time to time, its propelling force has always returned.</p><p>I have been investing for 80 years – more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant – almost enthusiasm – for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America. And I doubt very much that any reader of this letter will have a different experience in the future.</p><h2>Nothing Beats Having a Great Partner</h2><p>Charlie and I think pretty much alike. But what it takes me a page to explain, he sums up in a sentence. His version, moreover, is always more clearly reasoned and also more artfully – some might add bluntly – stated.</p><p>Here are a few of his thoughts, many lifted from a very recent podcast:</p><p>- The world is full of foolish gamblers, and they will not do as well as the patient investor.</p><p>- If you don’t see the world the way it is, it’s like judging something through a distorted lens.</p><p>- All I want to know is where I’m going to die, so I’ll never go there. And a related thought: Early on, write your desired obituary – and then behave accordingly.</p><p>- If you don’t care whether you are rational or not, you won’t work on it. Then you will stay irrational and get lousy results.</p><p>- Patience can be learned. Having a long attention span and the ability to concentrate on one thing for a long time is a huge advantage.</p><p>- You can learn a lot from dead people. Read of the deceased you admire and detest.</p><p>- Don’t bail away in a sinking boat if you can swim to one that is seaworthy.</p><p>- A great company keeps working after you are not; a mediocre company won’t do that.</p><p>- Warren and I don’t focus on the froth of the market. We seek out good long-term investments and stubbornly hold them for a long time.</p><p>- Ben Graham said, “Day to day, the stock market is a voting machine; in the long term it’s a weighing machine.” If you keep making something more valuable, then some wise person is going to notice it and start buying.</p><p>- There is no such thing as a 100% sure thing when investing. Thus, the use of leverage is dangerous. A string of wonderful numbers times zero will always equal zero. Don’t count on getting rich twice.</p><p>- You don’t, however, need to own a lot of things in order to get rich.</p><p>- You have to keep learning if you want to become a great investor. When the world changes, you must change.</p><p>- Warren and I hated railroad stocks for decades, but the world changed and finally the country had four huge railroads of vital importance to the American economy. We were slow to recognize the change, but better late than never.</p><p>- Finally, I will add two short sentences by Charlie that have been his decision-clinchers for decades: “Warren, think more about it. You’re smart and I’m right.”</p><p>And so it goes. I never have a phone call with Charlie without learning something. And, while he makes me think, he also makes me laugh.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>I will add to Charlie’s list a rule of my own: Find a very smart high-grade partner – preferably slightly older than you – and then listen very carefully to what he says.</p><h2>A Family Gathering in Omaha</h2><p>Charlie and I are shameless. Last year, at our first shareholder get-together in three years, we greeted you with our usual commercial hustle.</p><p>From the opening bell, we went straight for your wallet. In short order, our See’s kiosk sold you eleven tons of nourishing peanut brittle and chocolates. In our P.T. Barnum pitch, we promised you longevity. After all, what else but candy from See’s could account for Charlie and me making it to 99 and 92?</p><p>I know you can’t wait to hear the specifics of last year’s hustle.</p><p>On Friday, the doors were open from noon until 5 p.m., and our candy counters rang up 2,690 individual sales. On Saturday, See’s registered an additional 3,931 transactions between 7 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., despite the fact that 612 of the 912 operating hours occurred while our movie and the question-and-answer session were limiting commercial traffic.</p><p>Do the math: See’s rang up about 10 sales per minute during its prime operating time (racking up $400,309 of volume during the two days), with all the goods purchased at a single location selling products that haven’t been materially altered in 101 years. What worked for See’s in the days of Henry Ford’s model T works now.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Charlie, I, and the entire Berkshire bunch look forward to seeing you in Omaha on May 5-6. We will have a good time and so will you.</p><p>February 25, 2023 Warren E.

But Mr. Buffett retained his sense of optimism in his annual letter to investors Saturday, saying he attributes much of his success over the years to the resilience of the U.S. economy.</p><p>“I have been investing for 80 years—more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant—almost enthusiasm—for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America,” Mr. Buffett said in the letter.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, widely regarded as one of the world’s top investors, has been publishing the letters for more than half a century. Over that time, he hasn’t just reflected on the past year for his company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., but also shared his thoughts on everything from esoteric accounting rules to his aversion to excessive risk-taking.</p><p>Saturday’s letter offered readers a glimpse into how Mr. Buffett, 92, viewed what wound up being a shaky stretch for markets.</p><p>The volatility offered Berkshire an opportunity to jump in and buy stocks. While Berkshire largely bought back its own shares in 2021, it focused more in 2022 on investing in other companies—opening up new positions in media company Paramount Global and building-materials manufacturer Louisiana-Pacific Corp., among other businesses, and swiftly becoming Occidental Petroleum Corp.’s single biggest shareholder.</p><p>As of the end of 2022, Berkshire was the largest shareholder of eight companies—American Express Co., Bank of America Corp., Chevron Corp., Coca-Cola Co., HP Inc., Moody’s Corp., Occidental and Paramount Global.</p><p>“America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true,” Mr. Buffett said.</p><p>Berkshire also released its results for 2022 on Saturday.</p><p>The Omaha, Neb., company, which owns businesses including insurer Geico, railroad BNSF Railway and chocolate maker See’s Candies, posted a loss of $22.82 billion for the year, stung by $67.9 billion in investment and derivative contract losses. In 2021, Berkshire posted a profit of $90.8 billion.</p><p>Total revenue rose 9.4% to $302.1 billion.</p><p>Berkshire’s operating earnings, which exclude some investment results, rose to a record $30.8 billion.</p><p>Mr. Buffett, Berkshire’s chief executive, has long held that operating earnings are a better reflection of how Berkshire is doing, since accounting rules require the company to include unrealized gains and losses from its massive investment portfolio in its net income. Volatile markets can make Berkshire’s net income change substantially from quarter to quarter, regardless of how its underlying businesses are doing.</p><p>“Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades,” Mr. Buffett said in his letter. “But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors,” he said, adding that he and his right-hand man Charlie Munger urged shareholders to focus instead on Berkshire’s operating earnings, which rose to a record for the full year in 2022.</p><h2>Read the full letter here:</h2><p>To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.:</p><p>Charlie Munger, my long-time partner, and I have the job of managing the savings of a great number of individuals. We are grateful for their enduring trust, a relationship that often spans much of their adult lifetime. It is those dedicated savers that are forefront in my mind as I write this letter.</p><p>A common belief is that people choose to save when young, expecting thereby to maintain their living standards after retirement. Any assets that remain at death, this theory says, will usually be left to their families or, possibly, to friends and philanthropy.</p><p>Our experience has differed. We believe Berkshire’s individual holders largely to be of the once-a-saver, always-a-saver variety. Though these people live well, they eventually dispense most of their funds to philanthropic organizations. These, in turn, redistribute the funds by expenditures intended to improve the lives of a great many people who are unrelated to the original benefactor. Sometimes, the results have been spectacular.</p><p>The disposition of money unmasks humans. Charlie and I watch with pleasure the vast flow of Berkshire-generated funds to public needs and, alongside, the infrequency with which our shareholders opt for look-at-me assets and dynasty-building.</p><p>Who wouldn’t enjoy working for shareholders like ours?</p><h2>What We Do</h2><p>Charlie and I allocate your savings at Berkshire between two related forms of ownership. First, we invest in businesses that we control, usually buying 100% of each. Berkshire directs capital allocation at these subsidiaries and selects the CEOs who make day-by-day operating decisions. When large enterprises are being managed, both trust and rules are essential. Berkshire emphasizes the former to an unusual – some would say extreme – degree. Disappointments are inevitable. We are understanding about business mistakes; our tolerance for personal misconduct is zero.</p><p>In our second category of ownership, we buy publicly-traded stocks through which we passively own pieces of businesses. Holding these investments, we have no say in management.</p><p>Our goal in both forms of ownership is to make meaningful investments in businesses with both long-lasting favorable economic characteristics and trustworthy managers. Please note particularly that we own publicly-traded stocks based on our expectations about their long-term business performance, not because we view them as vehicles for adroit purchases and sales. That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.</p><p>Over the years, I have made many mistakes. Consequently, our extensive collection of businesses currently consists of a few enterprises that have truly extraordinary economics, many that enjoy very good economic characteristics, and a large group that are marginal. Along the way, other businesses in which I have invested have died, their products unwanted by the public. Capitalism has two sides: The system creates an ever-growing pile of losers while concurrently delivering a gusher of improved goods and services. Schumpeter called this phenomenon “creative destruction.”</p><p>One advantage of our publicly-traded segment is that – episodically – it becomes easy to buy pieces of wonderful businesses at wonderful prices. It’s crucial to understand that stocks often trade at truly foolish prices, both high and low. “Efficient” markets exist only in textbooks. In truth, marketable stocks and bonds are baffling, their behavior usually understandable only in retrospect.</p><p>Controlled businesses are a different breed. They sometimes command ridiculously higher prices than justified but are almost never available at bargain valuations. Unless under duress, the owner of a controlled business gives no thought to selling at a panic-type valuation.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>At this point, a report card from me is appropriate: In 58 years of Berkshire management, most of my capital-allocation decisions have been no better than so-so. In some cases, also, bad moves by me have been rescued by very large doses of luck. (Remember our escapes from near-disasters at USAir and Salomon? I certainly do.)</p><p>Our satisfactory results have been the product of about a dozen truly good decisions – that would be about one every five years – and a sometimes-forgotten advantage that favors long-term investors such as Berkshire. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain.</p><h2>The Secret Sauce</h2><p>In August 1994 – yes, 1994 – Berkshire completed its seven-year purchase of the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola we now own. The total cost was $1.3 billion – then a very meaningful sum at Berkshire.</p><p>The cash dividend we received from Coke in 1994 was $75 million. By 2022, the dividend had increased to $704 million. Growth occurred every year, just as certain as birthdays. All Charlie and I were required to do was cash Coke’s quarterly dividend checks. We expect that those checks are highly likely to grow.</p><p>American Express is much the same story. Berkshire’s purchases of Amex were essentially completed in 1995 and, coincidentally, also cost $1.3 billion. Annual dividends received from this investment have grown from $41 million to $302 million. Those checks, too, seem highly likely to increase.</p><p>These dividend gains, though pleasing, are far from spectacular. But they bring with them important gains in stock prices. At yearend, our Coke investment was valued at $25 billion while Amex was recorded at $22 billion. Each holding now accounts for roughly 5% of Berkshire’s net worth, akin to its weighting long ago.</p><p>Assume, for a moment, I had made a similarly-sized investment mistake in the 1990s, one that flat-lined and simply retained its $1.3 billion value in 2022. (An example would be a high-grade 30-year bond.) That disappointing investment would now represent an insignificant 0.3% of Berkshire’s net worth and would be delivering to us an unchanged $80 million or so of annual income.</p><p>The lesson for investors: The weeds wither away in significance as the flowers bloom. Over time, it takes just a few winners to work wonders. And, yes, it helps to start early and live into your 90s as well.</p><h2>The Past Year in Brief</h2><p>Berkshire had a good year in 2022. The company’s operating earnings – our term for income calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), exclusive of capital gains or losses from equity holdings – set a record at $30.8 billion. Charlie and I focus on this operational figure and urge you to do so as well. The GAAP figure, absent our adjustment, fluctuates wildly and capriciously at every reporting date. Note its acrobatic behavior in 2022, which is in no way unusual:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/69e74650656620f9fa3f1e55c15a90e5\" tg-width=\"797\" tg-height=\"207\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/></p><p>The GAAP earnings are 100% misleading when viewed quarterly or even annually. Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades. But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors.</p><p>A second positive development for Berkshire last year was our purchase of Alleghany Corporation, a property-casualty insurer captained by Joe Brandon. I’ve worked with Joe in the past, and he understands both Berkshire and insurance. Alleghany delivers special value to us because Berkshire’s unmatched financial strength allows its insurance subsidiaries to follow valuable and enduring investment strategies unavailable to virtually all competitors.</p><p>Aided by Alleghany, our insurance float increased during 2022 from $147 billion to $164 billion. With disciplined underwriting, these funds have a decent chance of being cost-free over time. Since purchasing our first property-casualty insurer in 1967, Berkshire’s float has increased 8,000-fold through acquisitions, operations and innovations. Though not recognized in our financial statements, this float has been an extraordinary asset for Berkshire. New shareholders can get an understanding of its value by reading our annually updated explanation of float on page A-2.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>A very minor gain in per-share intrinsic value took place in 2022 through Berkshire share repurchases as well as similar moves at Apple and American Express, both significant investees of ours. At Berkshire, we directly increased your interest in our unique collection of businesses by repurchasing 1.2% of the company’s outstanding shares. At Apple and Amex, repurchases increased Berkshire’s ownership a bit without any cost to us.</p><p>The math isn’t complicated: When the share count goes down, your interest in our many businesses goes up. Every small bit helps if repurchases are made at value-accretive prices. Just as surely, when a company overpays for repurchases, the continuing shareholders lose. At such times, gains flow only to the selling shareholders and to the friendly, but expensive, investment banker who recommended the foolish purchases.</p><p>Gains from value-accretive repurchases, it should be emphasized, benefit all owners – in every respect. Imagine, if you will, three fully-informed shareholders of a local auto dealership, one of whom manages the business. Imagine, further, that one of the passive owners wishes to sell his interest back to the company at a price attractive to the two continuing shareholders. When completed, has this transaction harmed anyone? Is the manager somehow favored over the continuing passive owners? Has the public been hurt?</p><p>When you are told that all repurchases are harmful to shareholders or to the country, or particularly beneficial to CEOs, you are listening to either an economic illiterate or a silver-tongued demagogue (characters that are not mutually exclusive).</p><p>Almost endless details of Berkshire’s 2022 operations are laid out on pages K-33 – K-66. Charlie and I, along with many Berkshire shareholders, enjoy poring over the many facts and figures laid out in that section. These pages are not, however, required reading. There are many Berkshire centimillionaires and, yes, billionaires who have never studied our financial figures. They simply know that Charlie and I – along with our families and close friends – continue to have very significant investments in Berkshire, and they trust us to treat their money as we do our own.</p><p>And that is a promise we can make.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Finally, an important warning: Even the operating earnings figure that we favor can easily be manipulated by managers who wish to do so. Such tampering is often thought of as sophisticated by CEOs, directors and their advisors. Reporters and analysts embrace its existence as well. Beating “expectations” is heralded as a managerial triumph.</p><p>That activity is disgusting. It requires no talent to manipulate numbers: Only a deep desire to deceive is required. “Bold imaginative accounting,” as a CEO once described his deception to me, has become one of the shames of capitalism.</p><h2>58 Years – and a Few Figures</h2><p>In 1965, Berkshire was a one-trick pony, the owner of a venerable – but doomed – New England textile operation. With that business on a death march, Berkshire needed an immediate fresh start. Looking back, I was slow to recognize the severity of its problems.</p><p>And then came a stroke of good luck: National Indemnity became available in 1967, and we shifted our resources toward insurance and other non-textile operations.</p><p>Thus began our journey to 2023, a bumpy road involving a combination of continuous savings by our owners (that is, by their retaining earnings), the power of compounding, our avoidance of major mistakes and – most important of all – the American Tailwind. America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true.</p><p>Berkshire now enjoys major ownership in an unmatched collection of huge and diversified businesses. Let’s first look at the 5,000 or so publicly-held companies that trade daily on NASDAQ, the NYSE and related venues. Within this group is housed the members of the S&P 500 Index, an elite collection of large and well-known American companies.</p><p>In aggregate, the 500 earned $1.8 trillion in 2021. I don’t yet have the final results for 2022. Using, therefore, the 2021 figures, only 128 of the 500 (including Berkshire itself) earned $3 billion or more. Indeed, 23 lost money.</p><p>At yearend 2022, Berkshire was the largest owner of eight of these giants: American Express, Bank of America, Chevron, Coca-Cola, HP Inc., Moody’s, Occidental Petroleum and Paramount Global.</p><p>In addition to those eight investees, Berkshire owns 100% of BNSF and 92% of BH Energy, each with earnings that exceed the $3 billion mark noted above ($5.9 billion at BNSF and</p><p>$4.3 billion at BHE). Were these companies publicly-owned, they would replace two present members of the 500. All told, our ten controlled and non-controlled behemoths leave Berkshire more broadly aligned with the country’s economic future than is the case at any other U.S. company. (This calculation leaves aside “fiduciary” operations such as pension funds and investment companies.) In addition, Berkshire’s insurance operation, though conducted through many individually-managed subsidiaries, has a value comparable to BNSF or BHE.</p><p>As for the future, Berkshire will always hold a boatload of cash and U.S. Treasury bills along with a wide array of businesses. We will also avoid behavior that could result in any uncomfortable cash needs at inconvenient times, including financial panics and unprecedented insurance losses. Our CEO will always be the Chief Risk Officer – a task it is irresponsible to delegate. Additionally, our future CEOs will have a significant part of their net worth in Berkshire shares, bought with their own money. And yes, our shareholders will continue to save and prosper by retaining earnings.</p><p>At Berkshire, there will be no finish line.</p><h2>Some Surprising Facts About Federal Taxes</h2><p>During the decade ending in 2021, the United States Treasury received about $32.3 trillion in taxes while it spent $43.9 trillion.</p><p>Though economists, politicians and many of the public have opinions about the consequences of that huge imbalance, Charlie and I plead ignorance and firmly believe that near-term economic and market forecasts are worse than useless. Our job is to manage Berkshire’s operations and finances in a manner that will achieve an acceptable result over time and that will preserve the company’s unmatched staying power when financial panics or severe worldwide recessions occur. Berkshire also offers some modest protection from runaway inflation, but this attribute is far from perfect. Huge and entrenched fiscal deficits have consequences.</p><p>The $32 trillion of revenue was garnered by the Treasury through individual income taxes (48%), social security and related receipts (3412%), corporate income tax payments (812%) and a wide variety of lesser levies. Berkshire’s contribution via the corporate income tax was $32 billion during the decade, almost exactly a tenth of 1% of all money that the Treasury collected.</p><p>And that means – brace yourself – had there been roughly 1,000 taxpayers in the U.S. matching Berkshire’s payments, no other businesses nor any of the country’s 131 million households would have needed to pay any taxes to the federal government. Not a dime.</p><p>* * * * * * * * * * * *</p><p>Millions, billions, trillions – we all know the words, but the sums involved are almost impossible to comprehend.

But Mr. Buffett retained his sense of optimism in his annual letter to investors Saturday, saying he attributes much of his success over the years to the resilience of the U.S. economy.“I have been investing for 80 years—more than one-third of our country’s lifetime. Despite our citizens’ penchant—almost enthusiasm—for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America,” Mr. Buffett said in the letter.Mr. Buffett, widely regarded as one of the world’s top investors, has been publishing the letters for more than half a century. Over that time, he hasn’t just reflected on the past year for his company, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., but also shared his thoughts on everything from esoteric accounting rules to his aversion to excessive risk-taking.Saturday’s letter offered readers a glimpse into how Mr. Buffett, 92, viewed what wound up being a shaky stretch for markets.The volatility offered Berkshire an opportunity to jump in and buy stocks. While Berkshire largely bought back its own shares in 2021, it focused more in 2022 on investing in other companies—opening up new positions in media company Paramount Global and building-materials manufacturer Louisiana-Pacific Corp., among other businesses, and swiftly becoming Occidental Petroleum Corp.’s single biggest shareholder.As of the end of 2022, Berkshire was the largest shareholder of eight companies—American Express Co., Bank of America Corp., Chevron Corp., Coca-Cola Co., HP Inc., Moody’s Corp., Occidental and Paramount Global.“America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true,” Mr. Buffett said.Berkshire also released its results for 2022 on Saturday.The Omaha, Neb., company, which owns businesses including insurer Geico, railroad BNSF Railway and chocolate maker See’s Candies, posted a loss of $22.82 billion for the year, stung by $67.9 billion in investment and derivative contract losses. In 2021, Berkshire posted a profit of $90.8 billion.Total revenue rose 9.4% to $302.1 billion.Berkshire’s operating earnings, which exclude some investment results, rose to a record $30.8 billion.Mr. Buffett, Berkshire’s chief executive, has long held that operating earnings are a better reflection of how Berkshire is doing, since accounting rules require the company to include unrealized gains and losses from its massive investment portfolio in its net income. Volatile markets can make Berkshire’s net income change substantially from quarter to quarter, regardless of how its underlying businesses are doing.“Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades,” Mr. Buffett said in his letter. “But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors,” he said, adding that he and his right-hand man Charlie Munger urged shareholders to focus instead on Berkshire’s operating earnings, which rose to a record for the full year in 2022.Read the full letter here:To the Shareholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.:Charlie Munger, my long-time partner, and I have the job of managing the savings of a great number of individuals. We are grateful for their enduring trust, a relationship that often spans much of their adult lifetime. It is those dedicated savers that are forefront in my mind as I write this letter.A common belief is that people choose to save when young, expecting thereby to maintain their living standards after retirement. Any assets that remain at death, this theory says, will usually be left to their families or, possibly, to friends and philanthropy.Our experience has differed. We believe Berkshire’s individual holders largely to be of the once-a-saver, always-a-saver variety. Though these people live well, they eventually dispense most of their funds to philanthropic organizations. These, in turn, redistribute the funds by expenditures intended to improve the lives of a great many people who are unrelated to the original benefactor. Sometimes, the results have been spectacular.The disposition of money unmasks humans. Charlie and I watch with pleasure the vast flow of Berkshire-generated funds to public needs and, alongside, the infrequency with which our shareholders opt for look-at-me assets and dynasty-building.Who wouldn’t enjoy working for shareholders like ours?What We DoCharlie and I allocate your savings at Berkshire between two related forms of ownership. First, we invest in businesses that we control, usually buying 100% of each. Berkshire directs capital allocation at these subsidiaries and selects the CEOs who make day-by-day operating decisions. When large enterprises are being managed, both trust and rules are essential. Berkshire emphasizes the former to an unusual – some would say extreme – degree. Disappointments are inevitable. We are understanding about business mistakes; our tolerance for personal misconduct is zero.In our second category of ownership, we buy publicly-traded stocks through which we passively own pieces of businesses. Holding these investments, we have no say in management.Our goal in both forms of ownership is to make meaningful investments in businesses with both long-lasting favorable economic characteristics and trustworthy managers. Please note particularly that we own publicly-traded stocks based on our expectations about their long-term business performance, not because we view them as vehicles for adroit purchases and sales. That point is crucial: Charlie and I are not stock-pickers; we are business-pickers.Over the years, I have made many mistakes. Consequently, our extensive collection of businesses currently consists of a few enterprises that have truly extraordinary economics, many that enjoy very good economic characteristics, and a large group that are marginal. Along the way, other businesses in which I have invested have died, their products unwanted by the public. Capitalism has two sides: The system creates an ever-growing pile of losers while concurrently delivering a gusher of improved goods and services. Schumpeter called this phenomenon “creative destruction.”One advantage of our publicly-traded segment is that – episodically – it becomes easy to buy pieces of wonderful businesses at wonderful prices. It’s crucial to understand that stocks often trade at truly foolish prices, both high and low. “Efficient” markets exist only in textbooks. In truth, marketable stocks and bonds are baffling, their behavior usually understandable only in retrospect.Controlled businesses are a different breed. They sometimes command ridiculously higher prices than justified but are almost never available at bargain valuations. Unless under duress, the owner of a controlled business gives no thought to selling at a panic-type valuation.* * * * * * * * * * * *At this point, a report card from me is appropriate: In 58 years of Berkshire management, most of my capital-allocation decisions have been no better than so-so. In some cases, also, bad moves by me have been rescued by very large doses of luck. (Remember our escapes from near-disasters at USAir and Salomon? I certainly do.)Our satisfactory results have been the product of about a dozen truly good decisions – that would be about one every five years – and a sometimes-forgotten advantage that favors long-term investors such as Berkshire. Let’s take a peek behind the curtain.The Secret SauceIn August 1994 – yes, 1994 – Berkshire completed its seven-year purchase of the 400 million shares of Coca-Cola we now own. The total cost was $1.3 billion – then a very meaningful sum at Berkshire.The cash dividend we received from Coke in 1994 was $75 million. By 2022, the dividend had increased to $704 million. Growth occurred every year, just as certain as birthdays. All Charlie and I were required to do was cash Coke’s quarterly dividend checks. We expect that those checks are highly likely to grow.American Express is much the same story. Berkshire’s purchases of Amex were essentially completed in 1995 and, coincidentally, also cost $1.3 billion. Annual dividends received from this investment have grown from $41 million to $302 million. Those checks, too, seem highly likely to increase.These dividend gains, though pleasing, are far from spectacular. But they bring with them important gains in stock prices. At yearend, our Coke investment was valued at $25 billion while Amex was recorded at $22 billion. Each holding now accounts for roughly 5% of Berkshire’s net worth, akin to its weighting long ago.Assume, for a moment, I had made a similarly-sized investment mistake in the 1990s, one that flat-lined and simply retained its $1.3 billion value in 2022. (An example would be a high-grade 30-year bond.) That disappointing investment would now represent an insignificant 0.3% of Berkshire’s net worth and would be delivering to us an unchanged $80 million or so of annual income.The lesson for investors: The weeds wither away in significance as the flowers bloom. Over time, it takes just a few winners to work wonders. And, yes, it helps to start early and live into your 90s as well.The Past Year in BriefBerkshire had a good year in 2022. The company’s operating earnings – our term for income calculated using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), exclusive of capital gains or losses from equity holdings – set a record at $30.8 billion. Charlie and I focus on this operational figure and urge you to do so as well. The GAAP figure, absent our adjustment, fluctuates wildly and capriciously at every reporting date. Note its acrobatic behavior in 2022, which is in no way unusual:The GAAP earnings are 100% misleading when viewed quarterly or even annually. Capital gains, to be sure, have been hugely important to Berkshire over past decades, and we expect them to be meaningfully positive in future decades. But their quarter-by-quarter gyrations, regularly and mindlessly headlined by media, totally misinform investors.A second positive development for Berkshire last year was our purchase of Alleghany Corporation, a property-casualty insurer captained by Joe Brandon. I’ve worked with Joe in the past, and he understands both Berkshire and insurance. Alleghany delivers special value to us because Berkshire’s unmatched financial strength allows its insurance subsidiaries to follow valuable and enduring investment strategies unavailable to virtually all competitors.Aided by Alleghany, our insurance float increased during 2022 from $147 billion to $164 billion. With disciplined underwriting, these funds have a decent chance of being cost-free over time. Since purchasing our first property-casualty insurer in 1967, Berkshire’s float has increased 8,000-fold through acquisitions, operations and innovations. Though not recognized in our financial statements, this float has been an extraordinary asset for Berkshire. New shareholders can get an understanding of its value by reading our annually updated explanation of float on page A-2.* * * * * * * * * * * *A very minor gain in per-share intrinsic value took place in 2022 through Berkshire share repurchases as well as similar moves at Apple and American Express, both significant investees of ours. At Berkshire, we directly increased your interest in our unique collection of businesses by repurchasing 1.2% of the company’s outstanding shares. At Apple and Amex, repurchases increased Berkshire’s ownership a bit without any cost to us.The math isn’t complicated: When the share count goes down, your interest in our many businesses goes up. Every small bit helps if repurchases are made at value-accretive prices. Just as surely, when a company overpays for repurchases, the continuing shareholders lose. At such times, gains flow only to the selling shareholders and to the friendly, but expensive, investment banker who recommended the foolish purchases.Gains from value-accretive repurchases, it should be emphasized, benefit all owners – in every respect. Imagine, if you will, three fully-informed shareholders of a local auto dealership, one of whom manages the business. Imagine, further, that one of the passive owners wishes to sell his interest back to the company at a price attractive to the two continuing shareholders. When completed, has this transaction harmed anyone? Is the manager somehow favored over the continuing passive owners? Has the public been hurt?When you are told that all repurchases are harmful to shareholders or to the country, or particularly beneficial to CEOs, you are listening to either an economic illiterate or a silver-tongued demagogue (characters that are not mutually exclusive).Almost endless details of Berkshire’s 2022 operations are laid out on pages K-33 – K-66. Charlie and I, along with many Berkshire shareholders, enjoy poring over the many facts and figures laid out in that section. These pages are not, however, required reading. There are many Berkshire centimillionaires and, yes, billionaires who have never studied our financial figures. They simply know that Charlie and I – along with our families and close friends – continue to have very significant investments in Berkshire, and they trust us to treat their money as we do our own.And that is a promise we can make.* * * * * * * * * * * *Finally, an important warning: Even the operating earnings figure that we favor can easily be manipulated by managers who wish to do so. Such tampering is often thought of as sophisticated by CEOs, directors and their advisors. Reporters and analysts embrace its existence as well. Beating “expectations” is heralded as a managerial triumph.That activity is disgusting. It requires no talent to manipulate numbers: Only a deep desire to deceive is required. “Bold imaginative accounting,” as a CEO once described his deception to me, has become one of the shames of capitalism.58 Years – and a Few FiguresIn 1965, Berkshire was a one-trick pony, the owner of a venerable – but doomed – New England textile operation. With that business on a death march, Berkshire needed an immediate fresh start. Looking back, I was slow to recognize the severity of its problems.And then came a stroke of good luck: National Indemnity became available in 1967, and we shifted our resources toward insurance and other non-textile operations.Thus began our journey to 2023, a bumpy road involving a combination of continuous savings by our owners (that is, by their retaining earnings), the power of compounding, our avoidance of major mistakes and – most important of all – the American Tailwind. America would have done fine without Berkshire. The reverse is not true.Berkshire now enjoys major ownership in an unmatched collection of huge and diversified businesses. Let’s first look at the 5,000 or so publicly-held companies that trade daily on NASDAQ, the NYSE and related venues. Within this group is housed the members of the S&P 500 Index, an elite collection of large and well-known American companies.In aggregate, the 500 earned $1.8 trillion in 2021. I don’t yet have the final results for 2022. Using, therefore, the 2021 figures, only 128 of the 500 (including Berkshire itself) earned $3 billion or more. Indeed, 23 lost money.At yearend 2022, Berkshire was the largest owner of eight of these giants: American Express, Bank of America, Chevron, Coca-Cola, HP Inc., Moody’s, Occidental Petroleum and Paramount Global.In addition to those eight investees, Berkshire owns 100% of BNSF and 92% of BH Energy, each with earnings that exceed the $3 billion mark noted above ($5.9 billion at BNSF and$4.3 billion at BHE). Were these companies publicly-owned, they would replace two present members of the 500. All told, our ten controlled and non-controlled behemoths leave Berkshire more broadly aligned with the country’s economic future than is the case at any other U.S. company. (This calculation leaves aside “fiduciary” operations such as pension funds and investment companies.) In addition, Berkshire’s insurance operation, though conducted through many individually-managed subsidiaries, has a value comparable to BNSF or BHE.As for the future, Berkshire will always hold a boatload of cash and U.S. Treasury bills along with a wide array of businesses. We will also avoid behavior that could result in any uncomfortable cash needs at inconvenient times, including financial panics and unprecedented insurance losses. Our CEO will always be the Chief Risk Officer – a task it is irresponsible to delegate. Additionally, our future CEOs will have a significant part of their net worth in Berkshire shares, bought with their own money. And yes, our shareholders will continue to save and prosper by retaining earnings.At Berkshire, there will be no finish line.Some Surprising Facts About Federal TaxesDuring the decade ending in 2021, the United States Treasury received about $32.3 trillion in taxes while it spent $43.9 trillion.Though economists, politicians and many of the public have opinions about the consequences of that huge imbalance, Charlie and I plead ignorance and firmly believe that near-term economic and market forecasts are worse than useless. Our job is to manage Berkshire’s operations and finances in a manner that will achieve an acceptable result over time and that will preserve the company’s unmatched staying power when financial panics or severe worldwide recessions occur. Berkshire also offers some modest protection from runaway inflation, but this attribute is far from perfect. Huge and entrenched fiscal deficits have consequences.The $32 trillion of revenue was garnered by the Treasury through individual income taxes (48%), social security and related receipts (3412%), corporate income tax payments (812%) and a wide variety of lesser levies. Berkshire’s contribution via the corporate income tax was $32 billion during the decade, almost exactly a tenth of 1% of all money that the Treasury collected.And that means – brace yourself – had there been roughly 1,000 taxpayers in the U.S. matching Berkshire’s payments, no other businesses nor any of the country’s 131 million households would have needed to pay any taxes to the federal government. Not a dime.* * * * * * * * * * * *Millions, billions, trillions – we all know the words, but the sums involved are almost impossible to comprehend. Let’s put physical dimensions to the numbers:- If you convert $1 million into newly-printed $100 bills, you will have a stack that reaches your chest.- Perform the same exercise with $1 billion – this is getting exciting! – and the stack reaches about 34 of a mile into the sky.- Finally, imagine piling up $32 billion, the total of Berkshire’s 2012-21 federal income tax payments. Now the stack grows to more than 21 miles in height, about three times the level at which commercial airplanes usually cruise.When it comes to federal taxes, individuals who own Berkshire can unequivocally state “I gave at the office.”* * * * * * * * * * * *At Berkshire we hope and expect to pay much more in taxes during the next decade. We owe the country no less: America’s dynamism has made a huge contribution to whatever success Berkshire has achieved – a contribution Berkshire will always need.

Despite our citizens’ penchant – almost enthusiasm – for self-criticism and self-doubt, I have yet to see a time when it made sense to make a long-term bet against America. And I doubt very much that any reader of this letter will have a different experience in the future.Nothing Beats Having a Great PartnerCharlie and I think pretty much alike.

For starters, the “woke mob” is ticked at CEO Elon Musk. Next, growth stocks in general are getting hammered as interest rates rise and there is no “fed put” in sight. In this report, we rank Tesla (based on fundamental metrics) versus 20 top growth stocks sourced from the top 10 holdings of two popular active growth ETFs, Future Fund (FFND) and ARK Innovation (ARKK), both have very large positions in Tesla. After digging deeper into the details on Tesla (including its tangled business history with the woke mob, future growth potential, profitability, valuation and risks), we conclude with our strong opinion about investing in Tesla and growth stocks in general.</p><h2>Tesla Overview:</h2><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/898f585435879dffaa9dec83e460b41c\" tg-width=\"424\" tg-height=\"98\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Tesla</span></p><p>As you know, Tesla designs, develops, manufactures, leases, and sells electric vehicles, and energy generation and storage systems (in the United States, China, and internationally). For reporting purposes, the company is divided into two operating segments (Automotive, and Energy Generation and Storage), but there is a lot more going on. For starters, here is a high level look at Tesla’s recent operations, in terms of vehicle production and deliveries, as well as solar and storage deployment and supercharger stations.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/aedaf32fc31973d75c7cc11d1af38908\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Tesla Q3 Investor Presentation</span></p><h2>Electric Vehicles: The Un-Holy Grail</h2><p>Tesla’s electric vehicles (“EVs”) and other solutions have captured mounds of positive (and some negative) attention over the years, in large part because it seems to provide a compelling alternative to the dangers of fossil fuel consumption (pollution) and climate change. And while these are noble aspirations, the reality is:</p><blockquote><i>Electricity grids in most of the world are still powered by fossil fuels such as coal or oil, and EVs depend on that energy to get charged. Separately, EV battery production remains an energy-intensive process.</i></blockquote><p>Basically, EV’s are still largely powered by the fossil fuels that many are trying to avoid. Further, electric vehicle batteries are extraordinarily harmful to the environment when their lives are over (plus the mining that goes into obtaining the rare elements for batteries is particularly unfriendly to the environment too). For example:</p><blockquote><i>Not only do these batteries require large amounts of raw materials, including lithium, nickel and cobalt – mining for which has climate, environmental and human rights impacts – they also threaten to leave a mountain of electronic waste as they reach the end of their lives.</i></blockquote><p>Further still, and despite the fact that Tesla has built out an impressive charging network (you can see the numbers in the table above), it’s still a lot easier and faster to simply fill up with gas than it can be to charge an electric vehicle. We’ll have a lot more to say about Tesla vehicles and other Tesla solutions in the section of this report on growth potential.</p><h2>Tesla’s History: In Bed with the Woke Mob</h2><p>Tesla was incorporated in 2003, and Elon Must became the largest shareholder in 2004 through a $6.5 million investment (Musk had $100 million from his recent sale of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PYPL\">PayPal</a> (PYPL)—a company he cofounded). However, It wasn’t until 2021 when the company finally become profitable, for the first time, without the help of emissions credits. If you don’t know, emission credits are basically financial incentives created by government entities to help reduce pollution. And these types of government incentives were a huge factor in allowing Tesla to remain in existence over the years. For example, Tesla was only about a month away from going bankrupt during the Model 3 ramp from mid-2017 to mid-2019.</p><p>Clearly emission credits and government incentives helped Tesla become the large organization it is today (we’ll have more to say about Tesla’s current financial position later in this report), and those credits and incentives would not have existed were it not for the social and political pressures of the environmentally-focused woke mob.</p><h2>Why Growth Stocks Are Getting Crushed:</h2><p>Here is a look at the recent performance of growth stocks (including the S&P 500 Growth Index (IVW), the Future Fund and the ARK innovation ETF) versus the S&P 500 (SPY). It’s not been pretty for growth stocks, and it’s going to get worse (as we explain below).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4e4ecc5604d9091ef9a9441191395d91\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"451\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>YCharts</span></p><p>In simple terms, growth stocks are getting hammered because the pandemic bubble is bursting. Specifically, the extraordinarily easy monetary and fiscal policies that were implemented after the onset of the pandemic led growth stocks to soar (because central banks held borrowing costs / interest rates artificially low (near 0%) and governments were throwing free money everywhere). And now that free money is gone, we’re left with the giant sucking sound of high inflation as central banks rapidly raise rates to fight the inflation they helped create.</p><p>Making matters worse, there is no “fed put” this time around (i.e. the fed isn’t going to bail out the stock market, as they have done in the past). The fed’s dual mandate is full employment and low inflation, and because unemployment is low but inflation is high, they’re going to keep raising rates (to fight inflation) which is driving the economy closer to an ugly recession. Basically, if you are a stock market investor (particularly a growth stock investor) the fed will likely keep tightening the screws on you until high inflation is gone.</p><h2>20 Top Growth Stocks, Ranked:</h2><p>The following tables include the top 10 holdings of two popular growth funds (i.e. Future Fund and ARK Innovation), as well as a variety of additional data points that are important considering the current macroeconomic environment (i.e. recession looming and a hawkish fed). Both funds have large positions in Tesla, as you can see below.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b634867b9343f2b0b3b27c7d15598ff5\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"288\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>StockRover, Future Fund website</span></p><p>(GOOGL) (PWR) (CELH) (SPLK) (ENPH) (CRM) (ZM) (EXAS) (ROKU) (SQ) (PATH) (SHOP) (CRSP) (NTLA) (TDOC) (TWLO) (U) (COIN) (DKNG) (BEAM)</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/5880c717cb5242d92253c23797f124f9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"276\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>StockRover, ARK website</span></p><p>The “Growth Score” (blue font) takes into consideration the 5 year history (as well as forward estimates) for EBITDA, Sales, and EPS growth (the best companies score a 100 (green) and the worst score a 0 (red)). If you’d like an expanded list, please reference our new report: Amazon: 100 Top Growth Stocks, Ranked.</p><p>Both funds (FFND and ARKK) invest in companies with very high future growth estimates (as you can see in the table above). However, from a fundamentals standpoint, you’ll also notice FFND invests in a lot more companies with positive net income margins, whereas ARKK does not. This has been an absolutely critical metric over the last year as the fed has increased rates. Specifically, companies that are not yet profitable (because they were banking on future profits) have suffered the worst losses (especially considering many of them may never achieve profits now that the fed has raised rates so much. In case you don’t know, when it comes to stock market investing—interest rates matter—a lot!</p><p>Also worth mentioning, FFND seems to pay a lot more attention to fundamentals, whereas ARKK appears largely focused on long-term growth ideas and concepts—fundamentals be darned!</p><h2>Tesla’s Future Growth Potential:</h2><p>With regards to Tesla, cash flows and profitability are both growing rapidly, a very good thing considering the current challenging capital market environment (e.g. rising interest rates).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d01496e29a20163f864265e210e046c1\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"288\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Tesla Q3 Investor Presentation</span></p><p>From a business standpoint, Tesla’s vehicle deliveries continue to grow rapidly (despite the recent delivery miss, which caused the shares to sell off further); deliveries are at an all-time high.</p><p>The growing number of deliveries is so important because as production and deliveries keep ramping, so will Tesla’s economies of scale and profit. Further, Tesla could expand its total addressable market (“TAM”) by ten-fold by cutting the cost of an electric vehicle in half, according to this recent note from Sam Korus at ARK Investments.</p><blockquote><i>Last week, during its third-quarter earnings call, Elon Musk noted that Tesla is developing a vehicle that will sell at roughly half the price of the Model 3 and Model Y. While vehicles at price-points above $60,000 address ~5% of the total US car market, the addressable market expands to 50% at ~$30,000, as shown below.</i></blockquote><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/71ae69f9a434a648ecc86cb921b427de\" tg-width=\"1072\" tg-height=\"709\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>ARK Invest</span></p><p>Further still, Tesla has plans to launch a light truck, a semi truck and a more affordable sedan and SUV platforms. These will all contribute to economies of scale ad reduced manufacturing costs per unit. Further, Tesla’s efforts into autonomous driving software can add subscription revenue and keep the brand awareness and image high. Not to mention, Tesla’s robotaxi business add to the upside. Also notable, Tesla’s Dojo supercomputer could incrementally add value at some point in the future.</p><p>Tesla’s Energy Generation and Storage segment also continues to grow. And although not yet contributing meaningfully to profits, it continues to scale and can eventually earn margins similar to Enphase (ENPH) (a long-time Blue Harbinger Disciplined Growth Portfolio holding).</p><h2>Profitability:</h2><p>As Tesla continues to ramp, so too will its profitability (margins). It helps tremendously that the company is already profitable—something many other high-growth companies cannot say (see our earlier top growth stock tables), considering rising interest rates make for a more challenging capital markets environment. Here is a look at the company’s most recent quarterly income statement (as you can see costs are not rising as rapidly as revenues, thereby improving margins and profitability).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/555327a97cc8577e06e8387529b9896d\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"335\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Tesla Q3 Investor Presentation</span></p><p>Also very important, Tesla has a healthy balance sheet (see below). In particular, the company has more current assets than total liabilities (a good thing with rates rising and considering a significant portion of debt comes due in the next few years.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/64a1f6709a40f3c590af018baca39e5b\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"328\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Tesla Q3 Investor Presentation</span></p><p>Tesla does not pay a dividend and has not been repurchasing shares, both good things considering the growth potential is attractive. Specifically, with a return on invested capital above the cost of capital, Tesla has wisely been reinvesting in itself.</p><h2>Valuation:</h2><p>Unlike other growth businesses that have sold off hard over the last year (as the fed has become increasingly hawkish), Tesla is actually profitable and margins are improving. This is a very good thing, but it’s also critically important to acknowledge Tesla’s high uncertainly and volatility (as compared to the auto industry and the overall S&P 500, as you can get some feel for in the graphics below).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ca520a7b7f328cb18678eba573444f36\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"278\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Tesla Q3 Investor Presentation</span></p><p>Assigning an exact valuation to Tesla given the high volatility, growth and uncertainty (Tesla is not a boring predictable company like Procter & Gamble (PG) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ)) is a challenging endeavor with resulting numbers varying widely based on cost of capital, return on capital invested and growth rate assumptions. That said, it can be worthwhile to compare Tesla’s margins, growth rate, profitability and valuation metrics to other large companies, as shown in the table below.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/36f83e6837820c63254aa38f27f27ca0\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"224\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>StockRover</span></p><p>A few notable things in the table above, Tesla is actually profitable (that’s more than a lot of other high-growth stocks can say) and even though its forward P/E ratio is way above other automakers, so is its expected growth rate much higher. Further, Tesla’s cost of capital is well below its return on invested capital, and its net margins are already very impressive (much better than GM and Ford) and expected to keep improving as economies of scale grow for Tesla.</p><p>For a little more perspective, the 33 Wall Street analysts covering the shares have an aggregate “Buy” rating, and many of them have price targets significantly higher than the current share price (which is down over 70% in the last year).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ea343249fa15053559dcc9626d5301f9\" tg-width=\"654\" tg-height=\"295\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Seeking Alpha</span></p><p>In our view, if Tesla continues on its current growth trajectory (a very big “if”) the shares can easily trade dramatically higher, as earnings are set to grow dramatically. And even if the growth rate comes in lower than expected (but still remains relatively high) the shares are still undervalued. From a high level, the market seems overly pessimistic on Tesla relative to its long-term earnings power and value (perhaps a near-term phenomenon related to the woke mob’s increasing contempt for CEO, Elon Musk).</p><h2>Risk Factors:</h2><p><b>Woke Mob Fury</b>: In case you haven’t noticed, Tesla is a volatile stock that gets a lot of media attention, particularly from the environmentally-focused woke mob. As alluded to earlier, the woke mob created significant political pressure that led to the emissions credits and other government-sponsored incentives that have helped Tesla become the large company it is today. However, the woke mob’s opinion of Tesla is changing rapidly.</p><p>For starters, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s recent purchase of Twitter (a major source for information distribution) has upset many from a political standpoint because they preferred the views of prior Twitter leadership. This has created significant negative media attention for Musk and for Tesla. For example, according to this NBC News article:</p><blockquote><i>“Elon Musk’s uneasy relationship with the left explodes over Twitter takeover… Musk has helped expand America's use of electric vehicles. The left has found a lot of other things to dislike about him.”</i></blockquote><p>Further, Musk's recent sanctioning of the Twitter Files has increased the heat on him and his companies.</p><p>Related, Tesla continues to receive low ESG (Environmental, Social and corporate Governance) ratings, while large oil and gas companies are increasingly receiving better ratings. For example, see: How Does Tesla Get A Worse ESG Score Than 2 Oil Companies?</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8b374541c5bfeb0b752079402f643126\" tg-width=\"1203\" tg-height=\"406\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Twitter</span></p><p>However, given the momentum of EV adoption, we expect negative sentiment to create more short-term pressure than long-term pressure. Further still, as constituents work to increase the use of alternative energy sources in the grid, this will decrease the fossil fuel footprint of electric vehicles (although fossil fuels will likely remain the major energy source for decades to come).</p><p><b>Key-Man Risk</b>: CEO Elon Musk splits his time between Tesla, Twitter, SpaceX and The Boring Company. This creates significant demands on his time and could detract from performance (although Musk is reported to be searching for a new Twitter CEO). Further still, Musk owns a significant percentage of Tesla’s shares, which he has recently reduced to fund his Twitter acquisition. Musk sales can negatively impact the share price.</p><p><b>Competition</b>: Traditional automakers are shifting heavily towards EV production which creates increased competition for Tesla. This could cause Tesla’s growth rate to slow. Some pundits argue that Tesla’s valuation multiple should be more in-line with traditional automakers, despite Tesla’s higher growth rate, higher margins and more expansive innovation.</p><p><b>Battery Prices</b>: According to some, battery and solar panel prices will decline faster than Tesla can reduce costs, resulting in little to no profit in this areas.</p><p><b>EV Adoption</b>: The magnitude of EV adoption may not be as great as expected. Some drivers may simply prefer to stick with their gas powered vehicles.</p><p><b>Regulatory Risks</b>: Tesla has historically relied heavily on subsidies and incentives. This may make future growth more challenging. Further, some states are requiring car makes and dealers to be separate, which could create legal challenges for Tesla.</p><p><b>Macro Headwinds</b>: Macroeconomic headwinds, as described earlier, are a significant risk factor for Tesla. Interest rates are higher, economic growth is slowing and the economy is expected to enter an ugly recession. This could dramatically slow growth, although stock prices generally recover faster than the economy.</p><h2>Key Takeaways and Conclusions:</h2><p>Tesla is profitable, growing rapidly and significantly undervalued. However, that doesn’t mean the shares won’t keep falling (the woke mob is angry, and this is bad for public perception). Further, the indiscriminate growth stock selloff continues, especially with recession looming and no “fed put” in sight.</p><p>However, Tesla has the fundamental growth characteristics that Future Fund likes (it’s ranked #1 in that fund). It also ranks above the 90th percentile (a good thing) in our fundamental growth score table above. Further still, Tesla apparently has the long-term rainmaker characteristics that <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/ARKK\">ARK Innovation ETF</a> likes (it’s ranked #3 in that fund).</p><p>If you are a low-risk, income-focused investor, stay the heck away from Tesla! But if you are a disciplined long-term growth investor, Tesla is increasingly attractive and worth considering for a spot in your prudently-diversified long-term portfolio. Although volatile, Tesla's long-term upside is very real.</p><p><i>This article is written by Blue Harbinger for reference only.

For starters, the “woke mob” is ticked at CEO Elon Musk. Next, growth stocks in general are getting hammered as interest rates rise and there is no “fed put” in sight. In this report, we rank Tesla (based on fundamental metrics) versus 20 top growth stocks sourced from the top 10 holdings of two popular active growth ETFs, Future Fund (FFND) and ARK Innovation (ARKK), both have very large positions in Tesla. After digging deeper into the details on Tesla (including its tangled business history with the woke mob, future growth potential, profitability, valuation and risks), we conclude with our strong opinion about investing in Tesla and growth stocks in general.Tesla Overview:TeslaAs you know, Tesla designs, develops, manufactures, leases, and sells electric vehicles, and energy generation and storage systems (in the United States, China, and internationally). For reporting purposes, the company is divided into two operating segments (Automotive, and Energy Generation and Storage), but there is a lot more going on. For starters, here is a high level look at Tesla’s recent operations, in terms of vehicle production and deliveries, as well as solar and storage deployment and supercharger stations.Tesla Q3 Investor PresentationElectric Vehicles: The Un-Holy GrailTesla’s electric vehicles (“EVs”) and other solutions have captured mounds of positive (and some negative) attention over the years, in large part because it seems to provide a compelling alternative to the dangers of fossil fuel consumption (pollution) and climate change. And while these are noble aspirations, the reality is:Electricity grids in most of the world are still powered by fossil fuels such as coal or oil, and EVs depend on that energy to get charged. Separately, EV battery production remains an energy-intensive process.Basically, EV’s are still largely powered by the fossil fuels that many are trying to avoid. Further, electric vehicle batteries are extraordinarily harmful to the environment when their lives are over (plus the mining that goes into obtaining the rare elements for batteries is particularly unfriendly to the environment too). For example:Not only do these batteries require large amounts of raw materials, including lithium, nickel and cobalt – mining for which has climate, environmental and human rights impacts – they also threaten to leave a mountain of electronic waste as they reach the end of their lives.Further still, and despite the fact that Tesla has built out an impressive charging network (you can see the numbers in the table above), it’s still a lot easier and faster to simply fill up with gas than it can be to charge an electric vehicle. We’ll have a lot more to say about Tesla vehicles and other Tesla solutions in the section of this report on growth potential.Tesla’s History: In Bed with the Woke MobTesla was incorporated in 2003, and Elon Must became the largest shareholder in 2004 through a $6.5 million investment (Musk had $100 million from his recent sale of PayPal (PYPL)—a company he cofounded). However, It wasn’t until 2021 when the company finally become profitable, for the first time, without the help of emissions credits. If you don’t know, emission credits are basically financial incentives created by government entities to help reduce pollution. And these types of government incentives were a huge factor in allowing Tesla to remain in existence over the years. For example, Tesla was only about a month away from going bankrupt during the Model 3 ramp from mid-2017 to mid-2019.Clearly emission credits and government incentives helped Tesla become the large organization it is today (we’ll have more to say about Tesla’s current financial position later in this report), and those credits and incentives would not have existed were it not for the social and political pressures of the environmentally-focused woke mob.Why Growth Stocks Are Getting Crushed:Here is a look at the recent performance of growth stocks (including the S&P 500 Growth Index (IVW), the Future Fund and the ARK innovation ETF) versus the S&P 500 (SPY). It’s not been pretty for growth stocks, and it’s going to get worse (as we explain below).YChartsIn simple terms, growth stocks are getting hammered because the pandemic bubble is bursting. Specifically, the extraordinarily easy monetary and fiscal policies that were implemented after the onset of the pandemic led growth stocks to soar (because central banks held borrowing costs / interest rates artificially low (near 0%) and governments were throwing free money everywhere). And now that free money is gone, we’re left with the giant sucking sound of high inflation as central banks rapidly raise rates to fight the inflation they helped create.Making matters worse, there is no “fed put” this time around (i.e. the fed isn’t going to bail out the stock market, as they have done in the past). The fed’s dual mandate is full employment and low inflation, and because unemployment is low but inflation is high, they’re going to keep raising rates (to fight inflation) which is driving the economy closer to an ugly recession. Basically, if you are a stock market investor (particularly a growth stock investor) the fed will likely keep tightening the screws on you until high inflation is gone.20 Top Growth Stocks, Ranked:The following tables include the top 10 holdings of two popular growth funds (i.e. Future Fund and ARK Innovation), as well as a variety of additional data points that are important considering the current macroeconomic environment (i.e. recession looming and a hawkish fed). Both funds have large positions in Tesla, as you can see below.StockRover, Future Fund website(GOOGL) (PWR) (CELH) (SPLK) (ENPH) (CRM) (ZM) (EXAS) (ROKU) (SQ) (PATH) (SHOP) (CRSP) (NTLA) (TDOC) (TWLO) (U) (COIN) (DKNG) (BEAM)StockRover, ARK websiteThe “Growth Score” (blue font) takes into consideration the 5 year history (as well as forward estimates) for EBITDA, Sales, and EPS growth (the best companies score a 100 (green) and the worst score a 0 (red)). If you’d like an expanded list, please reference our new report: Amazon: 100 Top Growth Stocks, Ranked.Both funds (FFND and ARKK) invest in companies with very high future growth estimates (as you can see in the table above). However, from a fundamentals standpoint, you’ll also notice FFND invests in a lot more companies with positive net income margins, whereas ARKK does not. This has been an absolutely critical metric over the last year as the fed has increased rates. Specifically, companies that are not yet profitable (because they were banking on future profits) have suffered the worst losses (especially considering many of them may never achieve profits now that the fed has raised rates so much. In case you don’t know, when it comes to stock market investing—interest rates matter—a lot!Also worth mentioning, FFND seems to pay a lot more attention to fundamentals, whereas ARKK appears largely focused on long-term growth ideas and concepts—fundamentals be darned!Tesla’s Future Growth Potential:With regards to Tesla, cash flows and profitability are both growing rapidly, a very good thing considering the current challenging capital market environment (e.g. rising interest rates).Tesla Q3 Investor PresentationFrom a business standpoint, Tesla’s vehicle deliveries continue to grow rapidly (despite the recent delivery miss, which caused the shares to sell off further); deliveries are at an all-time high.The growing number of deliveries is so important because as production and deliveries keep ramping, so will Tesla’s economies of scale and profit. Further, Tesla could expand its total addressable market (“TAM”) by ten-fold by cutting the cost of an electric vehicle in half, according to this recent note from Sam Korus at ARK Investments.Last week, during its third-quarter earnings call, Elon Musk noted that Tesla is developing a vehicle that will sell at roughly half the price of the Model 3 and Model Y. While vehicles at price-points above $60,000 address ~5% of the total US car market, the addressable market expands to 50% at ~$30,000, as shown below.ARK InvestFurther still, Tesla has plans to launch a light truck, a semi truck and a more affordable sedan and SUV platforms. These will all contribute to economies of scale ad reduced manufacturing costs per unit. Further, Tesla’s efforts into autonomous driving software can add subscription revenue and keep the brand awareness and image high. Not to mention, Tesla’s robotaxi business add to the upside. Also notable, Tesla’s Dojo supercomputer could incrementally add value at some point in the future.Tesla’s Energy Generation and Storage segment also continues to grow. And although not yet contributing meaningfully to profits, it continues to scale and can eventually earn margins similar to Enphase (ENPH) (a long-time Blue Harbinger Disciplined Growth Portfolio holding).Profitability:As Tesla continues to ramp, so too will its profitability (margins). It helps tremendously that the company is already profitable—something many other high-growth companies cannot say (see our earlier top growth stock tables), considering rising interest rates make for a more challenging capital markets environment. Here is a look at the company’s most recent quarterly income statement (as you can see costs are not rising as rapidly as revenues, thereby improving margins and profitability).Tesla Q3 Investor PresentationAlso very important, Tesla has a healthy balance sheet (see below). In particular, the company has more current assets than total liabilities (a good thing with rates rising and considering a significant portion of debt comes due in the next few years.Tesla Q3 Investor PresentationTesla does not pay a dividend and has not been repurchasing shares, both good things considering the growth potential is attractive. Specifically, with a return on invested capital above the cost of capital, Tesla has wisely been reinvesting in itself.Valuation:Unlike other growth businesses that have sold off hard over the last year (as the fed has become increasingly hawkish), Tesla is actually profitable and margins are improving. This is a very good thing, but it’s also critically important to acknowledge Tesla’s high uncertainly and volatility (as compared to the auto industry and the overall S&P 500, as you can get some feel for in the graphics below).Tesla Q3 Investor PresentationAssigning an exact valuation to Tesla given the high volatility, growth and uncertainty (Tesla is not a boring predictable company like Procter & Gamble (PG) and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ)) is a challenging endeavor with resulting numbers varying widely based on cost of capital, return on capital invested and growth rate assumptions. That said, it can be worthwhile to compare Tesla’s margins, growth rate, profitability and valuation metrics to other large companies, as shown in the table below.StockRoverA few notable things in the table above, Tesla is actually profitable (that’s more than a lot of other high-growth stocks can say) and even though its forward P/E ratio is way above other automakers, so is its expected growth rate much higher. Further, Tesla’s cost of capital is well below its return on invested capital, and its net margins are already very impressive (much better than GM and Ford) and expected to keep improving as economies of scale grow for Tesla.For a little more perspective, the 33 Wall Street analysts covering the shares have an aggregate “Buy” rating, and many of them have price targets significantly higher than the current share price (which is down over 70% in the last year).Seeking AlphaIn our view, if Tesla continues on its current growth trajectory (a very big “if”) the shares can easily trade dramatically higher, as earnings are set to grow dramatically. And even if the growth rate comes in lower than expected (but still remains relatively high) the shares are still undervalued. From a high level, the market seems overly pessimistic on Tesla relative to its long-term earnings power and value (perhaps a near-term phenomenon related to the woke mob’s increasing contempt for CEO, Elon Musk).Risk Factors:Woke Mob Fury: In case you haven’t noticed, Tesla is a volatile stock that gets a lot of media attention, particularly from the environmentally-focused woke mob. As alluded to earlier, the woke mob created significant political pressure that led to the emissions credits and other government-sponsored incentives that have helped Tesla become the large company it is today. However, the woke mob’s opinion of Tesla is changing rapidly.For starters, Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s recent purchase of Twitter (a major source for information distribution) has upset many from a political standpoint because they preferred the views of prior Twitter leadership. This has created significant negative media attention for Musk and for Tesla. For example, according to this NBC News article:“Elon Musk’s uneasy relationship with the left explodes over Twitter takeover… Musk has helped expand America's use of electric vehicles. The left has found a lot of other things to dislike about him.”Further, Musk's recent sanctioning of the Twitter Files has increased the heat on him and his companies.Related, Tesla continues to receive low ESG (Environmental, Social and corporate Governance) ratings, while large oil and gas companies are increasingly receiving better ratings. For example, see: How Does Tesla Get A Worse ESG Score Than 2 Oil Companies?TwitterHowever, given the momentum of EV adoption, we expect negative sentiment to create more short-term pressure than long-term pressure. Further still, as constituents work to increase the use of alternative energy sources in the grid, this will decrease the fossil fuel footprint of electric vehicles (although fossil fuels will likely remain the major energy source for decades to come).Key-Man Risk: CEO Elon Musk splits his time between Tesla, Twitter, SpaceX and The Boring Company. This creates significant demands on his time and could detract from performance (although Musk is reported to be searching for a new Twitter CEO). Further still, Musk owns a significant percentage of Tesla’s shares, which he has recently reduced to fund his Twitter acquisition. Musk sales can negatively impact the share price.Competition: Traditional automakers are shifting heavily towards EV production which creates increased competition for Tesla. This could cause Tesla’s growth rate to slow. Some pundits argue that Tesla’s valuation multiple should be more in-line with traditional automakers, despite Tesla’s higher growth rate, higher margins and more expansive innovation.Battery Prices: According to some, battery and solar panel prices will decline faster than Tesla can reduce costs, resulting in little to no profit in this areas.EV Adoption: The magnitude of EV adoption may not be as great as expected. Some drivers may simply prefer to stick with their gas powered vehicles.Regulatory Risks: Tesla has historically relied heavily on subsidies and incentives. This may make future growth more challenging. Further, some states are requiring car makes and dealers to be separate, which could create legal challenges for Tesla.Macro Headwinds: Macroeconomic headwinds, as described earlier, are a significant risk factor for Tesla. Interest rates are higher, economic growth is slowing and the economy is expected to enter an ugly recession. This could dramatically slow growth, although stock prices generally recover faster than the economy.Key Takeaways and Conclusions:Tesla is profitable, growing rapidly and significantly undervalued. However, that doesn’t mean the shares won’t keep falling (the woke mob is angry, and this is bad for public perception). Further, the indiscriminate growth stock selloff continues, especially with recession looming and no “fed put” in sight.However, Tesla has the fundamental growth characteristics that Future Fund likes (it’s ranked #1 in that fund). It also ranks above the 90th percentile (a good thing) in our fundamental growth score table above. Further still, Tesla apparently has the long-term rainmaker characteristics that ARK Innovation ETF likes (it’s ranked #3 in that fund).If you are a low-risk, income-focused investor, stay the heck away from Tesla! But if you are a disciplined long-term growth investor, Tesla is increasingly attractive and worth considering for a spot in your prudently-diversified long-term portfolio. Although volatile, Tesla's long-term upside is very real.This article is written by Blue Harbinger for reference only.

With the appropriate strategy, allocation, and investing time horizon, this isn't an impossible goal by any means. As you diversify your basket of stocks to work toward this achievement, it's important to select quality businesses across a wide variety of sectors with multiple catalysts to sustain continued returns over a period of years.</p><p>For example, if you were to invest $200,000 in the stock market right now, promising companies with innovative, industry-leading businesses ripe for future growth could foreseeably compound that investment by 5 times or more in the next decade. With that said, here are two such stocks that could help you build out your retirement plan.</p><h2>1. Upstart</h2><p><b>Upstart</b> is dealing with extremely choppy market waters right now; however, looking beyond these events to the company's long-term prospects, an altogether brighter picture forms. To understand why, one has to take a deeper look into the inner workings of Upstart and its business, which is driven by artificial intelligence and machine learning. The company operates a lending marketplace that revolves around its innovative technology platform, which leverages more than 1,600 data points to assess the creditworthiness of any given consumer. In other words, it doesn't just the FICO score but atypical factors like education and income to help determine this.</p><p>By using a far broader range of factors to determine whether an applicant ought to be approved for a loan, as well as the platform's predictive capabilities that calibrate to the economic environment to assess the likelihood of that applicant to default, Upstart has not only been able to democratize the long-stale lending arena but also lower risk for institutional partners with more inclusive and real-time data.</p><p>Moreover, because Upstart's platform is constantly learning, this not only enables it to adjust to the most current economic conditions, but this also means that more of the company's loan applications are being handled on a fully automated basis.</p><p>In Upstart's full-year 2022 earnings report, management said that 82% of all loan applications on the platform were fully automated -- the highest level of automation its model has reached in the history of the company. Moreover, 88% of all small-dollar loans are now automated. On top of that, as of the end of 2022, Upstart's model had learned more in the prior seven months than it had in the entire 30 months before that.</p><p>During 2022, Upstart's number of bank and credit union partners soared 120% from 2021, and its network of auto dealers jumped more than 90% year over year. Bear in mind, the auto lending market alone represents a near $800 billion opportunity, and as of the end of 2022, the company had the second-fastest-growing auto retail software in the country.</p><p>As Upstart's platform is constantly learning, a challenging economic environment is inevitably going to mean that it approves fewer loans than it would in a situation where the risk of default is lower, but this would also indicate the exact opposite would happen in a more buoyant economic landscape. At the same time, the combination of institutional partners funding far fewer loans right now and a drop in consumers applying for loans has contributed to the declines in Upstart's top and bottom lines recently. While investors will need to continue watching these factors closely in the quarters ahead, it's important to differentiate broader economic headwinds from headwinds tied directly to Upstart's business.</p><p>The fact that the company is expanding market share, boosting platform automation, and rapidly growing its partner network even in a decidedly bleak lending environment is notable, and could prime the business for a relatively rapid upward trajectory once the economic environment improves and interest rates come down. Even a conservative position in this top growth stock could yield tremendous results over the next five to 10 years when paired with a wide selection of investments in a buy-and-hold investment portfolio. That potential may be too intriguing for some investors to overlook while the stock's currently trading down.</p><h2>2. Teladoc</h2><p><b>Teladoc</b> investors -- and I am one of them -- have faced more than their fair share of volatile market days over the past year. While shares of this healthcare stock are still down 64% from 12 months ago, they've risen roughly 15% since the start of 2023. The market has been far less kind toward unprofitable, growth-oriented businesses in the current economic environment, and Teladoc currently fits squarely into both categories.</p><p>The full 2022 year saw Teladoc achieve some notable goals, while falling short on other fronts. Revenue totaled $2.4 billion for the 12-month period, an 18% increase from 2021. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) was down year over year, but still hit $247 million. Teladoc also continues to see rapid adoption across a wide range of its healthcare services, with its teletherapy arm BetterHelp alone posting revenue growth of 29% year over year in the final quarter of 2022.</p><p>Teladoc reported a third impairment charge in Q4 of 2022 after having significantly shaved its net losses in the prior quarter. Specifically, it ended the 12-month period with a net loss of $13.7 billion, almost entirely due to impairment charges related to writing down the value of its 2020 Livongo acquisition. Here's the thing, though: While this loss is unpleasant to look at as an investor, these were non-cash impairment charges. In other words, paper-only net losses, which are not the same as actual operational losses.</p><p>Even though Teladoc overpaid for that acquisition, its contribution to its overall mission of disrupting the still underserved chronic care solutions market remains a notable green flag for the long-term future of the integration of these two businesses. CEO Jason Gorevic noted the following about its chronic care segment and broader platform expansion on the company's 2022 earnings call:</p><blockquote>Access to our platform is available to over 80 million individuals in the U.S. today, primarily through our relationships with employers and health plans. Over 50% of that population has access to more than one of our products. And when I look at our suite of chronic care solutions, 30% of enrollees are now utilizing more than one chronic care product. Our BetterHelp offering provided over 1 million individuals with access to mental healthcare over the past year, many of whom are unlikely to have received any care at all, if not for our services.</blockquote><blockquote>Our platform enabled over 22 million visits across specialties last year and over 0.5 billion digital health interactions with an unmatched consumer experience and a net promoter score over 60. That breadth and scale is unrivaled in the industry and gives us a strong foundation on which to expand.</blockquote><p>Teladoc remains the premier telehealth platform in the U.S., and the increasing diversity and adoption of its offerings bode well for its ability to continue expanding its market share in the years ahead. Management has been clear that moving back to profitability is a key goal for the future. The investments Teladoc is making now could yield robust returns for the company and its shareholders in the years ahead. As such, given Teladoc's long trajectory for growth, forward-thinking investors may find any dips in the stock to be too good to pass up.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Want $1 Million in Retirement?

With the appropriate strategy, allocation, and investing time horizon, this isn't an impossible goal by any means. As you diversify your basket of stocks to work toward this achievement, it's important to select quality businesses across a wide variety of sectors with multiple catalysts to sustain continued returns over a period of years.For example, if you were to invest $200,000 in the stock market right now, promising companies with innovative, industry-leading businesses ripe for future growth could foreseeably compound that investment by 5 times or more in the next decade. With that said, here are two such stocks that could help you build out your retirement plan.1. UpstartUpstart is dealing with extremely choppy market waters right now; however, looking beyond these events to the company's long-term prospects, an altogether brighter picture forms. To understand why, one has to take a deeper look into the inner workings of Upstart and its business, which is driven by artificial intelligence and machine learning. The company operates a lending marketplace that revolves around its innovative technology platform, which leverages more than 1,600 data points to assess the creditworthiness of any given consumer. In other words, it doesn't just the FICO score but atypical factors like education and income to help determine this.By using a far broader range of factors to determine whether an applicant ought to be approved for a loan, as well as the platform's predictive capabilities that calibrate to the economic environment to assess the likelihood of that applicant to default, Upstart has not only been able to democratize the long-stale lending arena but also lower risk for institutional partners with more inclusive and real-time data.Moreover, because Upstart's platform is constantly learning, this not only enables it to adjust to the most current economic conditions, but this also means that more of the company's loan applications are being handled on a fully automated basis.In Upstart's full-year 2022 earnings report, management said that 82% of all loan applications on the platform were fully automated -- the highest level of automation its model has reached in the history of the company. Moreover, 88% of all small-dollar loans are now automated. On top of that, as of the end of 2022, Upstart's model had learned more in the prior seven months than it had in the entire 30 months before that.During 2022, Upstart's number of bank and credit union partners soared 120% from 2021, and its network of auto dealers jumped more than 90% year over year. Bear in mind, the auto lending market alone represents a near $800 billion opportunity, and as of the end of 2022, the company had the second-fastest-growing auto retail software in the country.As Upstart's platform is constantly learning, a challenging economic environment is inevitably going to mean that it approves fewer loans than it would in a situation where the risk of default is lower, but this would also indicate the exact opposite would happen in a more buoyant economic landscape. At the same time, the combination of institutional partners funding far fewer loans right now and a drop in consumers applying for loans has contributed to the declines in Upstart's top and bottom lines recently. While investors will need to continue watching these factors closely in the quarters ahead, it's important to differentiate broader economic headwinds from headwinds tied directly to Upstart's business.The fact that the company is expanding market share, boosting platform automation, and rapidly growing its partner network even in a decidedly bleak lending environment is notable, and could prime the business for a relatively rapid upward trajectory once the economic environment improves and interest rates come down. Even a conservative position in this top growth stock could yield tremendous results over the next five to 10 years when paired with a wide selection of investments in a buy-and-hold investment portfolio.
